This morning Thursday 16th we left Caernarfon at 9 am in good weather with sun and wind. Derek our guide for the day pointed out the houses and hisyory of the coastline and took us through the "Swellies" where with leading marks one can avoid the rocks just under the water. It was scenic passing beneath the two bridges to Anglesey with the wooded shores on either side. With a rising wind but bright sunshine we left the straits and headed for Conwy marina. It has been a short day's sailing but good for recuperation and scenery. Tonight we are going out for a meal - with Derek and his wife.
The forecast for tomorrow looks windy but in the right direction - south west mainly - but very probably wet. But what is new in that ?
We will hope to pass to the west of the Isle of Man and then go north to Bangor in Ireland if winds are suitable. We are getting towards the last lap, if not already on it.
