Day 51 - Bayona

We woke up early after
avoiding the towns festivities the night before as we knew it was time to
leave. We slipped our lines Thursday 11th September at 8:40AM and
sailed off, headed for Bayona the last stop for the west of We were both glad to
wake to a fogless morning and to be off once again after our unplanned
prolonged stay. It was actually really good to be back on the water now the low
pressure systems coming in from the A heap of Dolphins came
and said hi to us on our way in to Bayona which is always nice. As we sailed
into port we headed straight for the fuel station to fill our tanks with diesel
and water before running a shore for a beer and a spot of shopping. We have it
sorted now the whole stopping off for a bit and then coming back to the boat to
move out into the deep and drop anchor for the night. So far Fiona and I have
some how not had to pay for a berth in over a month which has really helped
with our budget. If we can keep it up we may even manage to be able to afford
to make it all the way home! Bayona looked like a
really nice place, it had a tone of trendy shops and everyone was friendly as
per usual but we were on a mission to make some ground so we did not stay a
second night. I guess I am thankful that we did not arrive for another festival Special comments by
Fiona:. To have It was great to be under
sail again, especially with some good wind behind us. I do love stopping off
at little towns, but even more I love being on the move to another unknown
