Friday 26th January. Staying here in Faro.
Nomad. Happy at anchor. Change of mind. I enjoyed the row ashore yesterday evening, good exercise. Rowing because the outboard needs attention, it has petrol coming out where it shouldn't. I'll stay in Faro awhile. The next good forecast for crossing the bay of Cadiz is Wed/Thur and the Gibraltar straits Sat/Sun. That's the plan. The weather is incredible, it's 21c here, 28c in Valencia. The big white birds that I saw on the shore coming in weren't storks, I don't know what they were, these are storks, there's loads of them here in the town centre. I bought oranges in the supermarket yesterday. What a fool! More storks. Sometimes they make a click clucking sound like the zombies in World War Z.
That was great progress Brendan. You'll be safe there. Storm Antoni descending on us early hours tomorrow. I asked Steve to put our furniture in the shed for safety. Kieran will get a pumelling in the caravan. Are you in the marina or close to one?

OMG. Saturday morning & all I could hear was it rain, rain, rain overnight. I was thinking of the poor campers down the road here. At least you have a hard top on you down there Bren. Mind you, they have a firm ground!... Hope you are in a marina & not bobbing offshore?
