Good Morning Madeira
After 655 miles of sailing we arrived in Madeira this morning at day break and docked Maravilha in Quinta do Lorde Marina at the eastern end of Madeira...a spectacular place! Some sight seeing, some good food (Espetada) and a sampling of "poncha" and Madeira wine...we are now about to get some rest before departing in the morning for Gran Canaria...311 mile to the south. The sail here was a mixed bag of conditions. Beautiful downwind sailing with moon lit skies. A day later a parade of squalls....followed by sunny skies, cobalt blue seas, and gentle following breezes.
