On the waves again.





Beautiful flowers
We left Arrecife, Lanzarote on Monday. The winds were light as we passed down the east side of the island and the swell was kind. As we turned west through the passage between Lanzarote and Fuerteventura, the swell built up and became uncomfortable. We cleared the lee of Lanzarote and the NE wind came on pretty strongly so we could turn the engine off and sail all the way to Gran Canaria, where we arrived by 10am on Tuesday. It took two hours to be berthed in the marina. We will leave on Thursday for El Hierro. Hasta Luego.

Great to see you both again after 8 years. Enjoyed your company yesterday evening, hope your pictures of the sunset came out. Bon Voyage and a safe crossing

Thank you Hierro. It was great to see you too. I just missed the sun but I did get the reddening sky. Your photo is now on our blog.
