Mild but very hazy. Orca watch was intense, 6 boats attacked, 1 south of Tarifa and 5 in SE Portugal Xia’s last day before she heads to Italy with Billy. Wonderful to be back in Med and warm swimming! Last night in Nerja a mess….Xia’s influence again.

Finally leaving Lagos after months of preparation with new windows. Feels Like a long haul. Love Lagos, but we miss adventure. Calm weather on departure. Tavira was a delightful anchorage. Tight with many fishing boats but they are small and passing slowly.
