Not Back at the Ranch, but Back at the Boat

Saturday night I arrived at Oporto. Already in the plane I realized that I had forgotten to make an arrangement with the marina office for the keys of Queen's Ransom. They close at 20h at night and open 08h the next morning. Indeed, having arrived at the Douro Marina in the town of Afurada I found the office closed. There was a party going on at one of the bars in the marina but also the guards couldn't help me with a telephonenumer of someone of the marina office. Therefore, I went out for an evening drink and after returning to the marina I made myself as comfortable as possible on the cockpit floor of Queenie. The bimini was still on but the sideflaps not. It became pretty fresh during the night but with my heavy weather sailing clothes I slept a few hours, still.
