37:57.023N 008:51.969W Sines Marina Thank you to Alexander and Dave Meaning for weather forecasting assistance, we are giving it a go tomorrow despite Sunday's swell being less. We are thinking tomorrow's (Saturday's) wind looks more favourable as we are nervous of ending up in too little wind to sail as per last Friday. Fingers crossed for Bol, his ear patch is on and we are aiming for a relaxed departure after breakfast. The wind is onshore/NW so if it goes pear-shaped early on, we can always return to Sines again! Harry caught three crabs on the rocks and watched on the internet how to strip them down to use as bait. Sadly the only thing he caught in the surf this evening was himself, he got his wellies filled by one particularly large wave, the fish remained elusive. Bol earned one Brownie Point for patience accompanying Harry fishing again. We thought we were back in Newport on the Isle of Wight today wandering down the aisles of Lidl; same products same aisles. Lovely Skype calls home, strong wifi in Sines enabling us to speak from the saloon on TC. |
