Onward to Gibraltar

We left Barbate just before sunrise...

Cape Tarifa - reknown for winds in excess of 30 knots most days of the year, also the Windsurfing Capitol of the World. Today a pussycat not a Lion...

So kool to be able to see north Africa and Spain simultaneously. Morocco to Starboard as we entered the Straits...

And the first sighting of the "Rock' in the distance...

 Then a weird cloud - well it is England :O)

Out of the blue ( grey?)  we were hit broadside by a squall, 35knots gusting to 38 - I thought that cloud looked dodgy...headed into it, dropped our sails and bashed across the Bay...

Past several big pieces of steel...

To a blue sky again. One view from our current position...

 And panning to Starboard :O) Now to get out of wet clothes, shower, hot meal and some much needed shut eye!
