We left Lagos I Portugal in the end of April 2006 and sailed to our favourite island, Culatra, outside Faro. It was very nice to back on this wonderful place again. After a week we crossed over to the Spanish Andalusia and visit some English friends there. Our sailing trip continued down to Gibraltar. It was our second visit this year to this place. We came here in February on a short trip to pick up a watermaker witch is now installed and working perfect. From here we sailed to Morocco. This was in the middle of May and we had a very bad weather. About 15 degrees so we had to put on the heater. In Sweden at the same time they had 25 degrees. Is something wrong with the global weather????
We had a very interesting time in this country. We took a local bus and went up to the mountains. This we recommend you to do if visiting this part of the world-
Back to Spain and all the way to the Balearics. We stayed here for six weeks.Mallorca is a wonderful island for sailing. We hade a terrible thunderstorm there and wind gusts over 60 knots/sec. We dragged of course but everyone did!We sailed from the Balearics and then to Sardinia. We loved that island and stayed there until September. Then we went for a short trip to Rome (to make a reservation for the winter) and then back again and sailed around Elba and Corsika for a month and then back to Rome again. We left our floating home in Fuimicino, just outside Rome, on hard stand in December and went back to Sweden. We just bought a new apartment in Lund (Sweden). It was new for us but the house is 50 years old. So we spend 5 months renovating the whole apartment. New kitchen (IKEA of course ) new wooden floor (Swedish oak) and so on……. We saved the bathroom to next winter. We were worried that we shouldn´t have anything to do next winter (!?!)
