Arrived in La Coruna. A nasty night with F7-F8 winds and big waves. The
cruise along the mountainous northern Spanish coast today was nice although
it was more surfing than sailing. Arrived in Coruna just as night fell.
Lurched into the first marina we came to and tied up on a pontoon
hammerhead. Dan's Mexican Spanish came in useful with the marina
nightwatchman. Although asking how many pesos it would cost for the berth
must have confused.

A meal of gammon ham, pineapple, sweet potatoes and a shower and shave
rounded off the day. As I write I hear the crew snoring.
