3rd day, after a very short night. When I was getting asleep, my phone rings. Me dumb. Why do I never remember to switch it off ?? And, what was that noise that lasted all night ? Sounded like rain but it didn’t rain. I even woke up to check that out. However, the next morning the bot was soaked. So humid.
I wake up early. Idea last night was to leave before dawn so they could experience what a night-sail is. Unfortunately, harbour office does not open till 9am and I have to pay. Why can they take a big deposit at night time and not do all the paperwork so we can leave when we want ? So, at 9am I walk to the office. All across the bar area. Looks like war area. And smells worse than rotten eggs. Aren’t there toilets in the bars, you club-goers ?
We leave at 9h30. We have some wind until noon, roughly. Very weak but enough to sail that huge boat. One can see this is the last day and that we didn’t sleep much. Unfortunately, wind changes direction and falls. A lot. We end the day with 2kt. I don’t cook today either. I just help with the heating of the leftovers (read veal stew and pasta – still really yummy leftovers) and the salad.
Boring day at sea. No wind, flat sea. We want to go back to Sitges at about 5pm so we can be home by 7.
We do.

Stumbled upon your blog a week ago and decided to come back. Not for the articles you write, but for how you write them, really amazing stuff you’re doing here, i like how you put information into the articles which makes it much more easier to read and much more interesting of course. Keep up the good work!
