Been hoping down the spanish coast for the last week since leaving palma in Majorca
 
On leaving Palma our 1st stop was ibiza with no fish  being an easy passage of 65 miles into port by 7 pm
 
The whole journey has turned more into a delivery trip now with weak winds and the need to push on each day so on comes the motor.
We managed one 7 hour sail between Almeria and san jose
Not to impressed with the coast line as it seems to be covered either in square top apartment blocks or mile upon mile of poly tunnels
Managed to anchor or pull into town quays most of the way so far
Weve had several dorado and 1 small tuna so far baked in the oven with ginger and garlic which was fantastic
 
Leaving today for gran canairia at 1 pm 5-6 days anticipated for the 700 miles
 
love to all
