• La Rapita … the end (for now)

    We found a small marina in a small but authentic (not touristy at all) town: La Rapita. About 2-3hrs south of Barcelona by bus. It just happens to be also the marina where our australien friends are wintering their boat. Interesting coincidence.

The return trip was epic: the weather turn really violent and we got alarming alerts on our phones about the weather. Heavy torrential rain, continuous lightning and thunder, hail even snow and strong winds made this trip dangerous but also memorable. Marc was a fantastic driver and we arrived at 1:30 at the boat… exhausted.Read more
