Ascension would have been two weeks ago, so not that. Perhaps we should learn from our iberian cousins, and have a few more reasons to dress up and have a party. Although I can't see the point of bank holidays anymore 🤣
O cean Village Marina. Gibraltar. Finest marina facilities in the med. Casino, restaurants, bars, the facilities are like in a hotel, the toilets have showers and baths!
At last I am off the anchor and in Seville proper. I should have read the book more carefully, this is not Holland, they only open the bridge to get in and out once every other day. And the book said that they always have space here but from what I can see I was lucky to get a booking, I can't see any other free spaces and I am wedged between two gin palaces, moored for and aft, Mediterranean style. First thing tomorrow, shower, get mosquito nets then meet Margaux at the airport.

'In the event of an incident, sailors have been advised to keep motors running and head for shallower coastal waters.'...
just in case you were tempted to cut the engine and head out to deeper sea😜! (Glad you've passed Gibraltar all the same)
Thanks Carmel but I think the best advice is to keep your fingers crossed.
