4th May

We are now 46 miles further south after an early start from Alghero. There was a swell that made us realise we hadn't been to sea for a while. We took seasick pills which promptly sent Lucinda to sleep. The weather was good but we had a cold wind in our faces. Later a small bird hitched a lift. It was bold enough to sit on the wheel just in front of us. When we got to the Gulf of Oristano we picked up a buoy just off the ruins of the Punic-Roman town of Tharros.
