Thursday morning saw a flat calm as we motored back along the coast. Always intriguing to see where houses have been built and where land is cultivated on the very steep slopes of these islands.
No obvious road down to this pretty large house, presumably with living accommodation on the top floor to see over the wall! Can’t imagine the wall would protect from the full force of winter storms.
The grounds of this house are on a steep slope requiring considerable manpower to maintain them. How do they do that?
Arrived back at our favourite anchorage just as the wind got up and too much of a chop developed to swim. Had a very relaxing last day at anchor reading and enjoying the breeze.
Left at 4ish and made our way back to the marina as stronger winds were forecast and we wanted to secure a berth.
Tucked up next to a Frenchman on an inner pontoon, hoping for less swell.
