Hello everyone! During the last week, we didn’t get much wind to move forward towards Gibraltar. But we seized pretty much every hour of decent wind and moved along the Spanish coast slowly and in rather slow steps.
When there was no wind, we did some scuba diving, played some beach volleyball with locals, visited Alicante or went for hikes 🙂
Sailing rather slowly also allowed us to fully appreciate how ugly the constructions along the coast are here and how beautiful every other coast on the trip has been so far!
When arriving in Alicante, we noticed a particularly ugly building, which we discovered later was designated as being the ugliest building in Spain! It’s the triangular building on the right side of the picture below:
We’re currently sailing with two friends who are staying with us for a week. They didn’t know what they were getting into as it is their first sailing experience, but luckily… They can’t escape the boat until we go into the next harbour!
Although the wind forecasts keep changing, right now, it looks like we’ll get some really good winds to move at least to Malaga between Thursday and Sunday. We really hope that the current wind forecast gets confirmed!!
