3 More Sleeps

Just had these pics from Pete. He is almost down to Playa Blanca now ready to go into the Marina Rubicon on Friday morning. He has quite enjoyed his week on his own really, now getting used to the cruising lifestyle he reckons - God he's got a shock coming when we all arrive! The roast dinner was shared with a single hander he met whilst anchored in Arrecife - it's not worth the bother for just one apparently. Anyway he was a really interesting guy and Pete was able to pick his brains about how he manages on passages on his own. You never know it might yet come to that!! We leave Scilly Friday morning, and fly down to Lanzarote on Sunday. Hopefully if I manage to get the laptop sorted out I will be able to post some pictures etc whilst we are down there.

Pete is still anchored in Arrecife with plans to move on tomorrow. He has been unable to get much of an internet connection - we are beginning to think it's the laptop doing something bizarre, so that will have to wait until I get down there to try and fix it. Pete admists to being baffled by it (but admittedly where computers are concerned it doesn't take much!)

Anyway he has been winding down nicely over the last few days, doing some domestics around the boat and chilling out. He is off down to Puerto del Carmen tomorrow with an aim to be in the Marina Rubicon in Playa Blanca on Friday - ready for our arrival on Sunday. We are all really looking forward to it now, as Madz would say "only 6 sleeps to go"!
