bye bye Mallorca

So we had some nice days at Mallorca, moved to Las Illetas for a couple of nights and bused into Palma for some shopping. The big low gave in and we sailed (and I mean sailed, not motored) overnight to Espalmador where we anchored for a little sleep, then sailed another night to Cartagena on the mainland of Spain. Great sailing, first night was only gentle breeze but we went on a flat sea at 4 or 5 kn all night, very easy. Next one we did 6 to 7kn all night and half a day on a mostly calm sea, and the last few hours had a gently breeze AND a current behind us to help into Cartagena. My highlight was seeing a sunfish, swam right next to the boat! Sorry, no photo, you just had to be here!
