We are on our way to Madeira. Had an overnight from Gibraltar. Lots of things to settle in such as systems, us and getting used to night watches. Stephen did most of the night, and slept in between times on the settee in the saloon. Keith watched the sun come up but the day was quite overcast this morning so it was uninspiring.
Trying to get provisions settled - do you know how many packets of sugar we will need for the whole trip? No, nor do I and that's part of the learning curve of provisioning!! But we have plenty Frosties. Have to keep the skipper happy.
 
Came down the Moroccan coast this morning. I was on dune watch but no sign of the Sahara!!
 
More soon.
