37:04.630N 8:07.268W Wednesday: Overnight it was very windy and nothing changed
this morning. We got up to check the mooring lines. They were OK but we both
would have been happier if we were a bit further back from the pontoon. We were
being blown onto the pontoon, and as the wind was so strong there was no way to
move the boat back. Although it was sunny with the wind it felt quite cool. We
had a quiet day reading and watching DVD’s. The cats were convinced we
were sailing with the boat bobbing round. Thursday: After a quiet morning we started sorting out the
anchor chain. We needed to mark the chain so that when we lay out the chain we
know how much we have put out. We also needed to sort it out so that the first
part of the chain in the locker was out of the way as we have more chain and
thicker chain than Wanda used to have. We need to store the chain carefully so
it doesn’t get caught while we are retrieving it. We also did a load of
laundry as it was another good drying day (sunny with a slight breeze). All our chain on the pontoon The Wandering Dragon garden |
