Thursday 7th July 2016
Well, today we travel to Truro in Cornwall to visit Jackie's daughter Fiona for three days then on to home.
The last few days have been wonderful and eventful !
Sunday and Monday were cloudy but warm - then the sun came out and it was hot !!
We went out sailing on Monday - 5 hours - lovely - tried fishing - nothing !
A flat sea - all systems worked well on Blazer - very pleased.
Tuesday / Wednesday - packing - sorting the boat for leaving - loading the car.
I removed the spray hood and made a temporary cover for the companionway hatch - I can reinforce the sewing at home and get a quotation for a new spray hood from Mudfords in Sheffield - might be cheaper than the marine cover makers quote ?
July and August are the holiday months in France and Trebeurden has come to life !!
The beaches are packed - the cafe's are buzzing - great to see.
There is also an international sailing regatta! - a big event - amazing that Trebeurden is hosting it !!
It is a shame to leave now, with the good weather and the place in holiday mode - but we have things to do at home and a holiday booked in Spain in three weeks time !
We will be back in Trebeurden in August / September we hope.
Last night we had a lovely meal at Le Quellen Hotel / restaurant to celebrate a great holiday - a little tradition of ours - we really enjoyed it.
Then on to Le Benji's with Penny for a night cap - great.
That's all for now - I will start up the blog again when we return to Blazer in late August.
Mike - Jackie + Penny.
