There was absolutely no wind when we left this morning so we motored the best part of 30nm before a Easterly sea breeze came in & wafted us gently into Ria Viveiro. A lovely anchorage on the 5 mile run down the Ria persuaded us to drop our plan to overnight in Vivero's new marina, & anchor; we put up the Bimini (sunshade to land lubbers) & had a lovely afternoon reading & our first swim. We also found the reason for a slight prop vibration & removed some fishing line from the prop. There's signs of fog on the hills this evening which will make tomorrow's rounding of Pt de Estaca, the most Northerly headland in Spain potentially more interesting, but at least the heavy onshore swell we were experiencing has largely subsided & winds remain light, if too light for sailing in the mornings.
