P. Pollenca ⚓: Andriessen Triple Trouble

When my family had just left the next family adventure awaited us already: Pleun and Eef. The three Andriessen musketeers complete, in the same place, at the same time. Unique. As usually they are spread across different continents or at least different countries. Crazy enough they have been in the same country for about a month now. We had to take this opportunity.

For a little while, we thought mom would also join the party, since some mysterious gifts had been delivered to the cantina restaurant right behind our Nimrod while we were away. But Marloes had "only" instructed someone to bring us birthday gifts!!

We started the good times with a typical, in the absence of Marloes we honored her with her well known, borrelplank and some bubbles to start the festivities on our aft deck. Good company and good conservations made that the time was flying by. As we were all up for some time to relax, we called it night not too late.

On day two of triple trouble, we sailed a bit before dropping the anchor followed by a relaxed morning. We took the dinghy ashore for a delicious paella, mussels, gambas and patatas bravas lunch. More great conversation, the type you often only have with family, later we were treated with ice cream by Pleun!

Early the next morning we discovered that our water tanks were empty and we already knew the watermaker wasn't working properly anymore. So from a lovely relaxing sort of boat retreat, we went a bit into camping style. As Bart and I tried to fix the watermaker Pleun and Eef luckily used the time to enjoy the sun and beautiful water. Not long after it was time to say goodbye for now. Leave family time behind us and get back into cruiser's life: fixing your boat in beautiful places.Baca selengkapnya
