After a really good sail across the bay of Biscay, under sail all the way with almost perfect winds we arrived in Gijon in N Spain. The crossing took under three days which was very good

We diverted into the east of the N Spain peninsular as there were Gale force winds at Finisterre, we would wait until that settled before moving on.

After completing the entry formalities in Gijon we explored the town. A very interesting little town.

The locals all promenade along the sea front each evening, then seem to end up in the old part of the town to drink the local Sidre
