We are on our way again. We left Cabo de Vela at about midday and plan to be in the first of the 5 bays by late afternoon tomorrow. All is well on board, we had a nice bit of wind as we left but that dropped off so we are now motor sailing. No fish yet but hopes are high. We have got a large number of flies instead though which is a bit frustrating. Hoping for a slightly easier night than the first one. I think we all have our sea legs now so should be better.

We really enjoyed our time in Cabo de Vela, a strange place with grass huts ashore and lots of curious fishermen. The wind picked up in the afternoon yesterday so we got out the windsurf gear and Matt and I had a go. Funny watching him using all my small gear. We then had sushi for dinner and ate up the last of 'Dave' the tuna. Early night for all after not much sleep the night before. Then surfing again this morning and a big fry up before packing up and setting off. 

Looking forward to visiting some of the 5 bays as they are supposed to be beautiful and a bit like the fijords of Norway. 

Also thought it was worth mentioning that Denise is still the reigning champion of monopoly deal and has amassed a vast fortune of $3.
