Back to Square One
28 September 2008 | Falsterbo Canal
For unknown reasons, we were not ready for take-off until noon.
Yet another sunny day, but the Mets have promised an end to that beginning already on Monday. One of these nasty lows of the latter part of the year is approaching from the Atlantic Ocean.
It's also windy. 22 knots sustained gusting to almost 30. Since we are still a bit sleepy, and defintetly not in a hurry, we hoist the jib only and move almost dead downwind at 5-6 knots. The 17 or there-about miles SE to Falsterbo mustn't pass by too quickly. We are really trying to enjoy this last day of this Journey. We are not talking much, each of us are contemplating everything we have experienced during the summer, and each of us are trying to deal with the melancholy that always comes while one is returning to the 'ordinary' life again...
We are looking forward to meeting some friends of course and getting updated on all events within our respective families.
We are dropping the 'hook' today, but are already planning next years sailing. Until then, we hope to, weather permitting, do a few shorter cruises during the winter season. Thanks for following our adventures.
