The good news is the boat is fine and no problems. We recieved an email from the marina telling us they had added two extra lines to ensure she was fine. they experienced 40-45 kts of wind and a few hours of heavy rain, but otherwise she withstood whatever was thrown at her. we are glad we took the time before we left to get it all taken down off the deck.
We returned to Masnou on Saturday. We left about noon and had a wonderful motor sail back. Tell you what, their boat is very sound and moves along in the water well for a 46 foot boat! We made it back to Masnou by 1800, tied up, but a bit tired. Renne´and I slept well that night for really the first time since we arrived in spain. Yesterday, we took the train into Barcelona at about 5 in the afternoon and got back to the boat about midnight. We went in to see the Castle and 1992 Olympic Site at Montjuïc.
We must have walked 5 miles!! Barb was a trooper with just having had an arthroscopy last week though! On our way down the hill to the rail station, we stopped to watch the fountain at Plaza Espanya. That was especially impressive!
this morning, I made coffee, boiled some eggs for breakfast, helped Doug hang clothes, then went grocery shopping with Doug, did our wash and hung them to dry, then escorted Renne´over here to the cafe´ to get on the internet.
Tomorrow, we are heading for Giron to rent a car, and the four of us will site see for two days, returning on Sept 1st to get ready to leave on the 3rd.
So for right now, Renne´ and I sent our love, we miss you all, and expect to see you for sundowners here when we return from Giron. In the meantime, we hope you health, love, and happiness!
