To Palma, to Palma!

After Monaco, it was back to Antibes for couple of nights before it was time to go to Palma. It seems that over the last month, I have left Antibes for the last time on three separate occasions which has meant we have somehow managed to sneak one last Mount Gay in at the Drinkers Club; on three separate occasions!

The delivery from Antibes to Palma was quite an eventful 300nm trip. Leaving mid-morning on Tuesday, by the time we got into Palma at dusk on Wednesday we had seen dolphins, cruised with whales, witnessed countless tuna feeding frenzies and even caught a fair sized one for dinner (and lunch for the next month!). Not to mention the afternoon glass-off near Hyeres allowing us to get the main off the boom in the middle of the Med (doesn't sound like much but when its 800m2 it's kind of a big deal).

We did lose a few hours due to a detour caused by the french navy having gunnery practice, we could hear the guns going off but, going by the past I don't think they were too successful (if you haven't already done it type in french military victories and click the I'm feeling lucky button).

Anyway enough Jibba Jabba. Enjoy.

Ears: Bright Eyes (the king of deep lyrics!)

Blow.

I think this is a whale.

Vagn is "hooked" on fishing (sorry)

The viewing gallery.

Cam is also "hooked" on fishing (see, repetition makes things funny!) 


And Sashimi is served.

Had a few of these kids with us for the trip.
