One-night-stand at Viano Do Castello

In the river just for the night

Up the river to Viano Do Castello close to the railway bridge.

..and early out again,before wind sets in, heading south.

Cold weather at the anchorage makes us leave the Islas Cies heading for Bayona.

Cold fog

Islas Cies seen from Bayona, 7 miles away.

Taget fra Øens højeste punkt ved fyrtårnet.
Dette er den nordlige naboø.

Tåen flyder ind fra vest mellem øerne.

En dyb slugt oppefra.

Sigtbarheden ved ankerpladsen et par hundrede meter.

Islas Cies and the anchor permit

Our anchor permit is valid only from tomorrow, so we spend some time in beautiful Ria de Vigo. Today in Cangas.

From Vigo to Cangas

We are not there yet...

..but tomorrow, we shall be.

FINALLY! We are done. And out at anchor again.

Here it is! Straightened and welded.

Anchor - an Uller-Matic - bent because of missing "Sorgleine"

After a night at anchor behind the Cape of Corrubado in Galicia our anchor got stuck behind a rock at 30 feet depth. When we finally gor it up with mere force i was bent..

... this meant of a week of waiting because of a series of holidays. 

I have to mention, that it takes two days here to celebrate the Ascension of HOLY MARY!! ..and the following Friday it was'nt worthwhile to open the workshops before the weekend. 

We ought to update more frequently :)
There are a few photographs and observations still awaiting their publication ...
But here we go ...

These clips we shot yesterday (14 August) on our way from Corrubedo to the RIA de VIGO.

Some small repairs and baking on a sunny day.

Electronics and ...

..baking.

La Coruña - Caramiñas - Muros

Det blæser på vej til Caramiñas....

...og det regner...

Men dagen efter stråler solen igen.

Muros

Og her var der pludseligt ingen fart mere..
Den gule streg er vores sejlede rute på GPS`sen.
Den blå er vores rute.
Vi havde undervurderet vindskyggen bag den meget høje pynt ved insejlningen i Ria Muross
og drev så bare rundt mellem pynten og nogle klipper lidt længere udd..

Her ved Cabo Finisterre er der supergod fart i skuden endnu.

Back in our beloved A Coruña in Galicia

A Coruña – Wikipedia

Great to be here again after 12 and 25 years respectively.
Rainer instinctively finds back to our preferred gay bar from those days. ;-)

Smukke La Coruña

"Our" bar La Alfajate" ("Symaskinen") in the sub.

The City Habour.

Still in Cherbourg

A local pub.

Nice atmosphere at night time but we are getting impatient. Tomorrow we want to move on and set sail for either Brest or A Coruña ...

No weather for sailing, at least for us. ;-)
