Hi. We had a wonderful and relaxing day in Camerinas and enjoyed a lovely seafood meal comprising mainly octopus and muscles. We have been surprised at how low some prices are. For example we had a Baileys And Spanish liqueur plus a coffee for 5 euros and in A Coruna actually went back to a bar thinking they had forgotten to charge us for part of the tapas meal! We have all been impressed at how helpful and friendly everyone has been.
After a quiet night in Camerinas we set sail for the Muros ria heading west to the north-west corner of Spain and then turning south and passing the famous landmark of Finisterre which I have passed twice before, once in fog and once at night in a gale. It was good to see it in daylight with good weather for a change. We briefly saw some more dolphin but they showed little interest in us. Arriving in the ria we anchored off a lovely beach and Launched The dinghy and paddleboard which we left on the beach to have a short walk. Getting back to the boat we decided to have a swim. Melanie, the only one showing any sense, stayed on the boat in the sunshine, Sarah Thomasz, and myself had a swim. It was absolutely freezing. To compensate we had a lovely meal on board and a bottle of wine. Today Saturday first of June we motored the short distance to the small town and fishing harbour of Muros and berthed in the marina. We arrived on one of the towns gala days with a cycling event coming through. Tonight we are going to a local bar to watch the Liverpool/Spurs football match.
