As perfect as the conditions still are, I think we'd all like a bit more variety soon. Hopefully we'll get it as we round Finisterre in a few hours.

At the moment we seem to be between an armada of Spanish fishing boats and a lot of commercial northbound shipping. We've had dolphins playing around the boat this morning which caused a bit of excitement.

I think we'll be stopping in Cascais which is just under 300 miles south of us, so we should be there by Sunday morning. We'll need to take on more water by then (and we could do with a beer).
