Sailing off the coast of Cassblanca (think Rick’s Cafe)
in 10 knots of wind – close hauled and Bandit making reasonable progress in
large swells. Mohammedia was
interesting but not riveting…..think we’ve had our fill of third world countries
for a while! Loved exploring the
medinas in Rabat and Sale – we did a day trip up there by train. Also
enjoyed buying beautiful hand painted tagine dishes and bowls. Provisioning was a delight – all the
fruit and veges we need for the four day sale to the Canaries for less than
$5. And the selection of spices, herbs, dried fruit and nuts was mind
boggling.
Great to be out sailing again and David has the line out
in anticipation. Loads of fishing
boats around the coast so surely they’ll be a stray tuna somewhere?
An afternoon
snooze may be in order as we head into the first of three nights at sea before
making landfall in the Canaries.
