The forecast would you believe it was for northerly wind force 4 to 5 occasionally 6 in the east. Not good but at least the wind was behind us. We left at 07.45am and it was 64 miles to Cape St. Vincent.
We rounded the Cape very close in and the scenery was stunning. People were fishing 300 ft up from the top of the cliffs. We wondered what happened when they caught a fish!
It still felt cold for the time of year. We headed into Vilamoura. A very efficient marina and lots of restaurants, it reminded me of a mini Puerto Banus.
Philip and Yvonne’s friends Mike and Linda had been waiting there for a week hoping to join us for part of the voyage but unfortunately because of all the delays they only had one day left. At least we managed dinner with them that night at a good restaurant called the Mayflower.
