Tuesday 30th of July. Tazones.

It's a nice anchorage here, I think I'll stay for the day. The winds for going east are better tomorrow.
A genuine Portuguese Man o War, first I've ever seen, drifting by the boat. I was thinking of a swim and a bit of weed cleaning but there's always some stuff floating around in the water.
You can't see it very well in this picture. I suspect these small seaside villages don't have any methods of waste treatment so it all goes in a pipe out to sea. I've probably anchored right over the outlet.

    Seriously hope your journey is going a bit more to plan now.

    There probably is, god knows they've got a class for everything else. Breakdancing?

    That is just stupid. It is hardly a sport.

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.
