Westwards along the north coast of Spain
... and sailed to Suances, where we motored up the river between training walls and eventaully anchored midstream.
4/9 as there was again no wind early we motorsailed along the coast and eventually pulled into the magnificent ria of San Vincente de Barquera - another top contender for favourite place, we anchored off a little beach with a village opposite the roman/medieval walled town and the stunning Picos mountains behind (definitely a top 3 destination so far) ...
Finisterre- the end of the earth, good bye boots!

First stop after leaving La Coruna
Hooray, we finally left La Coruna at 1.30pm on Saturday and arrived here after 8 hour sail. Dunikolu is back to her old self and you cannot notice the bottom surgery!
We found ourselves a beautiful place to stop for the night here in Ria de Laxe. Now we are back to the normal boat life for a day or two. I took my travel sickness pills and no ill effect so far. We had a great sail here too.
