4th and 5th July

We slept badly expecting a storm. However there was little wind overnight and Imagine remained attached to the sea bed. We got up early and walked to the lighthouse overlooking Soller. It was mid morning by the time we got back so we pushed off heading for the Spanish mainland. The winds were light to non existent for the whole crossing and we were only able to use a sail to assist the engines for a few hours. The sunset was great. The moon rose behind us after about an hour of darkness and it was spectacular. Enormous and glowing golden orange, as it rose it gave enough light for us to see clearly. It was chased away by the dawn at 6:30 a.m. We arrived in Sant Carles after a crossing of 113 miles which took 22 hours. So far this season we have travelled 970 nm. We will be back in September hopefully heading to Sardinia. Until then this blog is on holiday.
