Gibraltar

Just half a day after disembarking from Palermo, the furling line breaks and the main halyard block comes off during rough weather.

Dolphins join us to play at the bow multiple times on the way to Gibraltar and we also spot pilot whales 🐋.

Once across the border the next day, things couldn't be more British. Gibraltar is a weird place. It's basically a big rock with a town attached to it. For some reason, they also have monkeys here 🐒Read more
