Well, we have arrived at the startline of the ARC
after 1734nm of travelling under sail. It seems every bit of that - we are a
long way from northern Europe in the late autumn, in every sense. We are now
moored in a very nice marina, right next to an enormous commercial port with
more ships than I have ever seen before other than at Rotterdam. I have no idea
why they're all here. Ship mending today, then a walk to the Old Town. Warm and
sunny again, but I don't find that in the least bit boring or
monotonous!
