Well, we're here !!
240 boats here getting ready for the trip. We've been put in seperate little marina with all the other Cats, unfortunately nothing like the atmosphere of the "main" marina and we're rafted up 3 deep which means climbing over 2 other boats to get to ours, not too clever :O(
Brian and Howard went to do the shopping today. Four big trolleys full of stuff and 480 euro's later .....
Very helpful staff that delivered the stuff to the marina (good job really we'd never have managed it on foot)
Very nice girl on the checkout who wasn't phased in the slightest and was obviously used to yachties turning up and spending half an hour checking out.
Fancy dress party last night in one of the bars, and a great time had by all, though Peter reckons he's never drinking again (I'll believe it when I see it)
All packed up and made another shopping list for the stuff we forgot first time round. So we'll head off to the bar again shortly.........
Take care everyone, more to follow as and when.
