We tied up in Larnaca Marina on Tuesday morning and rushed to the café there
to order the 'Full English' with extra bacon and sausage.

For lunch we fell in with some long-term expat Brits called Alison, John,
Cathy and David in the Cyprus Offshore Yacht Club and had a good number of
Carlsberg's with them as a sort of nod to the final scenes of 'Ice Cold in
Alex'.

For dinner we were recommended a restaurant down some backstreets of Larnaca
where they served up the most enormous pork chops. Now we know we are really
back in Christendom!

Steve has just left for the airport to seek fame and fortune back in
Blighty. Fair Winds, Steve. It's been good having your scouse humour along
for the last four thousand miles and seven countries. It's been a tough
trip.

New crew, at least for the next few days, arrives in Larnaca tonight. This
crew is not really all that new having already been a stowaway onboard for
six months across the South Pacific. Welcome back Fraulein Heike.
