Ok…I know I've missed a day, but, it was just a day of catching up, doing 3 loads of washing….that took nearly all day in itself…some shopping, organising internet, food, travel to Palma on Saturday etc…..
Today was a very busy day…we completely stripped out Bluebelle…cleaned everything, transferred clothes and all the paraphernalia to Windekind for the next chapter in our adventures….

Did we really fit all of this into Bluebelle[/caption]

Our beloved Windekind[/caption]
We are considering whether we might take Mango Tango with us on the next leg of the journey…it's just a question of how we might carry her from Barcelona across to the Balearics…or whichever way we end up sailing in July. We had a play trying various places, but no firm plans yet.
BT had a great day tinkering on Windekind…changing batteries, checking the engine…you know….boy stuff!!!
Bluebelle now has a lovely new home for the next month until we return in July. She is having a holiday of her own at our friend Roderigo's house up in the hills behind the port. Roderigo and Bibiana and his gorgeous family very kindly invited us to stay with them for the night…

Saturday we caught a flight to Palma, Mallorca, where we are to spend a week in Pollenca with the family……we are not intending to blog much this week…just enjoy our time with the family.
On saturday 7th June, we all go our separate ways….the children all return home, BT goes to work on Bubbles…..

We will return at the beginning of July when we will be boarding Windekind for two months of sailing whichever way the wind blows.
Thank you all so much for reading our blog and for all your lovely comments….we really do love to hear from you and it makes the writing and sharing of our adventures worth the effort.
See you in July
We finally got time to sit down and follow your adventures from when we met you on the Midi. Wow you did a really speedy trip to Spain. Love all the photos on the blog. We are now heading up the Rhone. It is hot, 36 degrees today, but boating conditions overall are good so we are making good progress - still less than your biking speed though!.
ReplyDeleteWe have subscribed to your blog so will follow your progress and hope to meet up again one day,
cheers Mike and Liz on Liberty
Hi Liz...it's great to hear from you. Thanks for trawling through the blog! Where have you reached now? The weather here (UK) has been fantastic...sounds like you have been too hot! We are planning to spend July and August on our little boat...sailing from Barcelona to the Balearics ..let us know if you'll be anywhere nearby...we'd love to get together. Love to both, Simon and Yvonne xxx
