Fuengirola to La Linea
07 October 2014

We left again on daylight, waiting so we could see the numerous fishing floats to miss. We had a thick fog descend on us with visibility only to the bow. Just after 1200 it was like opening a door and sailing into the sunshine, but still no wind. That changed at 1350 but of course was on the nose so we put up the sails and did a bit of tacking, to give the starboard motor a rest. Rounding Europa point the wind was up to 25knts and the waves were standing up in a short swell. Pleased to put the anchor down at La Linea, the Spanish side of the frontier to Gibralta. We will stay here until the tradesmen are organised.
Change that ! We now have the tradesmen and there is no marina berth. Maybe Wednesday. That's a bother 'cos the electrician now can't come til Monday. Expensive berth fees for nothing happening, but if we don't take the berth when it is available we could have a rerun of our present situation. We'll see what tomorrow brings.
