We left Isle des
Embriez (Paul Ricards Island) heading for Ciotat. Having had a good sail into a
growing wind we found that Ciotat wasn't able to accommodate us so on we went
into increasing winds and sea taking shelter in the Calanque of Port
Miou. Here we ended up for three nights anchored on a buoy, as strong winds
were blowing in our final destination of Port Napoleon, just west of
Marseille.
At least we were
able to swim from the boat, visit Cassis some 30 minutes by foot, and some of
the other little calanques nearby.
Finally the wind
died Wednesday so off we went and are now back in our 'home port' and will have
the boat hauled out until we return at the end of Agust for more
adventures.

August.
