One boat: we're sailing. Two boats: we're racing!!! #18

When you are one boat, you are sailing. When you are two boats, you are racing. Guys, we are making friends!!!

This week, we make landfall from crossing Biscay in Galicia, and bay-hop from Ria del Barqueiro to Cedeira. We are having a great time with the Boutavent family, our cruising friends who, together with their 4 kids, bring tons of fun to our sailing adventure.

On our way from Ria del Barqueiro to Cedeira, Sophie smells smoke and detects an early forest fire. We jumped on the phone, called 112 (the equivalent of 911 in Europe) and a couple of hours later, the firemen had come and the fire was put off. We are sad to witness the effect of the hot summer in Europe, but glad the fire didn’t spread to the village below.

Arrived in Cedeira, it rained a lot. And although it was a good thing considered the fire we witnessed, it meant troubles for our friends on Boutavent, who discovered leaks on their boat. In hard time, it’s nice to have boat friends who can relate to your problems!

We left Cedeira the next day, and headed to La Coruña where we said goodbye. We really hope to meet our friends again, for more pedalboard shenanigans!
