We started today with poled out sails going well downwind but arrived here at 5pm Spanish time having motored for the last 50 miles with no wind and limited visibility due to fog. More dolphins, some pilot whales and a lost homing pigeon named Percy who joined us for 10 hours have been keeping us entertained.

La Coruna is not pretty, there is a Roman lighthouse but lots of industry and docks. Cornish steak and first alcohol for four days this evening. Tom goes home tomorrow but we will stay here for a week or so.
