Fuga ao planejado
Hoje fugimos do roteiro planejado.
Mas foi uma escolha maravilhosa.

Wieder einmal vergeblich versuchte ich auch Harry davon zu überzeugen mich zu begleiten...es war für mich einfach erstaunlich wie wenig Interesser er (und viele andere Segler) für die Landschaft hier zeigte. Er hatte ja vor seinem Aufenthalt auf den Kanaren ja schon ein Jahr in Horta gelebt - und trotzdem noch nie die vielleicht nur 45 Autominuten entfernte Caldeira besucht...
Vergeblich blieben auch meine Bemühungen per Autostop dorthin ...
