Porto Palo

Hello again, well talk about famous last words I think I wrote something about getting a good nights sleep in my last post well I had settled for the night but the wind was picking up from the N.E. which meant sea would get much worse. Unfortunately it is now dark but we decide we can’t stay so discuss options, further up coast to marina and try to moor unaided in the dark not my first choice, or return a few miles to Porto Palo and anchor. This is more sensible we can follow our day time route on the plotter and use harbour light so find the port and then anchor. Well its OK we made it and the night once we were thee was settled and quiet. In the end we spent three nights here before going to Syracuse. While in Porto Palo we explored an old, well we think it was a fish farm or factory, wierd place. But we are now in Syracuse we arrived on Friday after, in my opinion, a horrendous trip from Porto Palo i admit it was lumpy but I think perhaps I had sun stroke because it wasn’t really as bad as the way my body reacted. I spent most of either leaning over side or lying on the floor!Lue lisää
