8th September

We left at first dawn as adverse winds were forecast for later. The sun rose spectacularly over the hills to the east as we left the harbour. Every type of cloud was visible during the day, as well as patches of clear blue sky, all attesting to the changeable weather. We got into Licata as the wind was building and rested for a few hours after lunch. We then stocked up in the supermarket before heading into town for a meal.
