We've just passed Lisbon and next step the Cape of
St Vincent (scene of the battle of Trafalgar). Sadly we won't be stopping - this
was one of my favorite anchorages of last year.
The wind has dropped so we are motoring again and
it is not looking like we will get much more sailing in the next 24
hours.
Nights are strange - the sun doesn't set until
23:00 local time nor rise until 07:00 so the whole day is shifted and the 05:00
to 08:00 watch, which would normally be full of dawn only just gets any sun at
all.
Culinary performance is down on the highs set by
Fiona last year - sausage with packet sauce is the high point so
far.
Still no fish......
