I am amazed that Palermo is my last post here. I really can't even begin to do any updates, I can only hope to let you know what is happening now.
I am on the island of Paxos in Greece and my laptop has finally packed it in, so I am back to doing everything at an Internet cafe and there aren't that many of them around within a reasonable distance from the harbour.
It is HOT, HOT, HOT!!! and so I stay near the water or in the shade most of the time, catching up on maintenance - still and again. The hull under water is now again clean - since the water is warm and I'm anchored. The boat is spotless and I will next tackle the varnish. I have all of July to do this as it looks like I'll be on my own. If anyone would like to do some sanding - let me know. LOL. Trade sailing for sanding.
Gotto go as my time here is almost up. Yassu.
Hi Barbara just sat on the balcony catching up and also mastering new technology.
ReplyDeletebeer's cold the sunstarting to sink in this vicking midsummer. the weatherhas been fickle, perfect sailing, sun, wind and rain then I read about your maintenance shedule sounds like a fair swap and am sorely tempted. but, with so mutch to learn! and breack in e.t.c.( Iv,e just got a laptop loaded up with fugawi nav, software and am ironing out the creeses), sorry to hear about the laptop crashing.. amazingly enough worlds'disappear. in one stroke of lightning.I mean siber world,s and to think a telephone was hightech when I was a teen. Scotland was fantastic a sail around westerly highlands and Irelands is to be recormended.Hop you are having a good summer besides the mishaps. Stockholms archepeligoe is beutifull aT THE MOMENT.The tall dhips race comes to Stockholm at the end of July followed by the Stockolms Jaz and Blues festival. so it,s hard to drag one self away from this tepid climate. but if it gets too hot then come north for a few days.I,m going to check your site and read about your summer
