We have finally completed all our tasks and we will move out to the Jolly Harbour anchorage this afternoon.  This will enable us to get an early start tomorrow for our 46 mile voyage to Deshaes in Guadeloupe.

Since we have been here we have mixed tasks with some exploring; we hired a car for the day last Friday and went down to Falmouth for lunch at Cloggy's and then to Half Moon Bay.  We were told it had been voted the 3rd most beautiful beach in the world.  It was certainly pretty but as it faces towards the Atlantic the waves are too high for comfortable paddling/swimming in the sea.

The photos are;

Some of the final bits and pieces taken out of our storage locker to be stowed somewhere on Roysterer.
