We had a lovely time with Jane and were sad to see her go, but she will be joining us in November when we do the Atlantic Crossing, so more good times to look forward to.
We are leaving for the Madeira Islands tomorrow morning. It should take us three days and it looks like we should have nice 15 to 18 knot northerlies with 1-2 m swell.
So preparations are underway - dinghy, kayak and paddleboard deflated and stored away. Passage meals cooked, and provisioning done. Today we catch up with a bit more provisioning, sort out our internet, and do the last washing.
We plan to leave about 10am tomorrow morning and should arrive Wednesday early morning.
