Ria De Vigo

Set sail downwind towards Ria de Vigo and Baina, the sea
was choppy but sailed downwind with the headsail only at 6-7 knots after 15
miles we turned the corner into a bay Ensenada de Barra opposite Ilses du
Cies, the wind then dropped and we anchored in a beautiful bay with lovely beaches,
but it was a nudist beach…. Lots of skin on show. We still went for
a walk along the beach but we were rather over dressed in our swimwear. What
a lot of sights… Choppy Is my bum big in these????? What a lovely shot thanks
David Panthera at anchor The locals showing us their muscles Modelling the new outfit, had to go down below to free the
anchor buoy as it got stuck under the keel. Bloody cold and dark, did not enjoy this trip below the
boat. The Anchor Buoy that was stuck under the hull…..
Margaret and Roger “Magnetic Attraction” from
Royal Clarence arrived in the Ria, which was lovely. The came over for
drinks and a meal I had picked up a large white fish on the market that
morning, so cooked this with yellow beans, olives, cherry tomatoes, basil and
anchovies in the oven for 20 mins, served with new potatoes tossed in butter
and mint. Then for dessert I served strawberries, mascarpone and dark
chocolate. All washed down with a few bottles of wine, a good evening was
had by all. Hope Margaret & Roger got back to their boat as there
was no moon and they had not left an anchor light on, so we shone our torch for
as long as we could in the direction they thought there boat was???? Missing you all see you soon Love |
