We took the 10 minute bus-ride to Noia (Noya) A bustling Old town with many supermarkets and excellent town centre. It being the off season the roads were being ripped up and re-laid ready for next year but we had a pleasant stroll looking at the architecture. Cake is served free with coffee in Spain as we found out at a café.
Left on the 9th and sailed for Caramiňal (9th - 11th)
Anchored off Caramiňal late evening here I made a big mistake while setting up the anchor I reversed too hard and there was a clunk from the windlass woe is me. I hope it is not too much damage… the bit which has come off doesn’t seem to do very much ! since it all works well without it. We had the Avon on deck and ready to use. No sooner had we anchored than a British yachtsman called Andrew rowed over to ask if we had any books to swap and then told us he had an art exhibition on in a local bar to raise funds for winter moorings and so on. After looking round the town and doing the shopping we then had tea with him and his Chinese wife Rika aboard their yacht ‘Brillig’ needless to say we swapped books with them but didn’t have time to see their exhibition. Rika is a concert pianist and has a keyboard on board.
Left early next morning for Islas Cies...
