Tuesday 29th April – Gibraltar

36:08.966N 5:21.314W

 

Today was the promised trip to M&S for provisioning of the unmentionables… and on the way back we finally found the cycle shop we have been looking for.

 

That done, I came back to Pyxis to do a little preparation for the arrival of our Swiss friends, Wolf and Barbara on Sedna this evening, while Richard headed off to Morrisons yet again. 

 

I arranged a berth with the harbour master and Carola prepared a welcome banner (which we strung along the wall of the hut by the harbour entrance) so that we could give them a suitable welcome. 

 

They have arrived from Madeira via Rota and tonight we had a small welcome party aboard Pyxis.  They were very tired after the trip so it was not too late a night for them.  As you might expect Moonshadow and Pyxis kept going a little longer…
