The wind has been acting up the last few days. For three days we had big waves coming from the north, and strong winds coming from the south. So where does one go with those conditions?

In a marina is the answer. So that is where we have been for the past three days, while the skies were grey and the rain – yes rain in Lanzarote – was heavy. But Marina Rubicon has great internet, which is a rare treat, so we caught up on a lot of online stuff.

Today the sun is shining and the wind is still from the south, but due to go light and then round in circles the next few days. So we are jumping on this opportunity to sail to Tenerife.

Because of the south winds it would be harder to go to Gran Canaria which, in any case, is pretty busy this month, so we will just skip over that for now and see if we can find an anchorage in Tenerife.

The passage is overnight, so we will be out of touch until tomorrow!
