28th June

This morning we rowed to the harbour wall and walked into the old town. Very picturesque but not at all touristy. Lucinda bought yet more fruit and vegetable; but can I persuade her that buying baked beans is priority? At breakfast I got a look from her as I helped myself to Lizzie's granola. It's Lucinda's special packet. We motor-sailed the 5.5 miles round to Porto Petro. This is a deep Cala with three limbs, one of which contains a marina. The other two bays are meant to contain bookable buoys but they had only been laid in one inlet. So we headed to the other and dropped anchor. We had to try twice as there is a lot of weed on the bottom. We ended up next to a Spanish boat with one male skipper and 10 young women on board. It was a small monohull and the women squeezed themselves into contorted positions trying to find space for all of them to lie out on deck. We'll eat on board tonight.
