Deep Blue

Living The Dream

Slipped the lines at last!

28 July 2007
We waved goodbye to Shotley Marina at 7.30 this morning for the next destination - Ramsgate! It was a lovely calm morning and we had the wind in our favour to enable us to do lots of sailing. Then, the tide changed and the wind changed so we switched the motor on and completed a bumpy ride into Ramsgate. If you haven't visited Ramsgate, we can certainly recommend it. A lovely harbour, seaside town with some great restaurants. To celebrate our arrival, we went to Bon Appetit tel: 01943 852750 overlooking the marina where we had a delicious meal cooked by chef/owner Mark. It was carnival in Ramsgate on Sunday and, whilst we couldn't see the procession, we could hear the music from the various floats as they made their way along the harbour road.
