We left Cartagena at about 1600 - I think most of the other yachts in the
marina there thought we were mad. We'd forgotten just how closed Spain is
ona Sunday until we tried to find a supermarket...never mind - we have
plenty of food on board.
The weather forecast is for force 5 or 6 from the north-east, with the worst
of it further offshore and a little south of us. We're hugging the Spainish
coast, heading north at the moment. We'll work our way up to somewhere near
Ibiza before we tack onto port and head east towards Sardinia.
We've had a couple of nasty squally showers this evening - they tend to
occur whenever Paul's on deck, so we think he must have offended the weather
gods somehow.
Watches are 2 hours on, 2 hours off, and since I'm now off watch, writing
this is stopping me from sleeping! Good night :)
