Heading to Explore Barcelona Spain before Transatlantic Crossing. In A Spanish Unity March. Ep96
Ep96. In this episode of Cruising Off Duty, we begin the 5 week journey to explore Barcelona, Valencia, Las Palmas in the Canary Islands, then doing a Transatlantic Sailing Voyage before arriving St Lucia in the Caribbean.
This is the first episode where we arrive in Barcelona, Jet Lagged, living on 2 hrs sleep, and forced to walk the streets of Barcelona for hours waiting to check into our AirBnB. During this walk we end up walking in a Spanish Unity march, as the country is in the midst of a battle by Catalonian Separatists to break away from Spain and become it’s own country. Barcelona happens to be hub of the Catalonian Separatist movement. On this day the demonstration was for those that want Spain to stay together, so lots of Spanish pride on display.

Cruising Off Duty
Welcome to Cruising Off Duty. We are Craig and Janice. We love travelling and we love sailing, so we figure the best way to see the world is by sailboat. We presently have a 35' Beneteau Oceanis sloop that we sail out of Kingston, Ontario Canada, which is on Lake Ontario. We have a longer term plan, when we retire in a few years, to sell everything and buy a 40-50' Catamaran and circumnavigate the globe. Craig loves photography along with land based and drone videography and plans to document everything along our travels to share with the world through Youtube and other social media. For now, follow our channel as we show you the beauty of the Great Lakes and the 1000 Islands area of the St Lawrence River. You will also see the steps we take as start narrowing down the Catamaran we think will suit us best as we move closer to our goal of living full time on a sailboat and exploring the world. It should be a journey worth watching.
