Anthony walked all the hills/volcanoes yesterday while the rest of the crew did some boat maintenance and special thanks to Venetia for her repairs to the stack pack in very cold conditions. Alas, the tanning has had to be put on hold as it was 10/10 cloud with a chilly wind and none of the crew has ventured into the water yet. Today has brought more wind and some sun while we all walked across the island and then back to Caleto del Sablo for an excellent fish lunch at the restaurant on the key. We have seen hoopoe, stone curlew, Berthelot's pipit, southern grey shrike and trumpeter finch, so the twitchers in the crew are very happy.
Tomorrow we must leave this lovely place and head for Puerto Calero as sadly Anthony and Venetia will be leaving us on Wednesday.
