Position, La Coruna, Spain, 43 21N, 08 23W. Yesterday afternoon was lovely
out in the bay of Biscay but there was hardly a whisper of air, but it did come
and go overnight, and we either motor-sailed or sailed if the true wind was
eight knots or more. The job list continues to grow not helped by me jabbing
away at the water maker switches at three this morning making it poorly again. I
think we have the technology to cope with it though.
The sun set last night as a full moon rose at a 180 degrees to it and the
moon was with us all night. It was exciting seeing the coast of Galicia appear
over the horizon and we had a pleasant time piloting the boat into the marina
for 10 this morning (11 local time). Ian drove the last few miles and did such a
good job he parked it as well. Now that the formalities are over and the boat
washed off, we are going to look for the Wetherspoons that Nan and Paul said was
here. The next up-date will appear soon! |
