We enjoyed a fabulous rest day from marina del Este, we hired a car and drove up into the mountains to Poppy and Judith’s to join Poppy’s birthday celebrations. It was great to meet a lovely group of people and join the fun. I relaxed so much I failed to take photos (epic fail for a blog writer!!) We had a lovely day and the next morning we drove down the hill again to rejoin Gemini J and set sail (well set motor actually)
It was a nice day but as you can see from the photos, very calm so once again we were motor sailing. We had a very relaxing afternoon ….. one of us relaxed a little more than the other…..
Before we knew it we were at Torrox lighthouse and from there is was a short run into the marina at Caleta de Vélez. We arrived earlier than we had expected and took a walk to the beach where I chose a fish dish from the menu at the beach bar. Note the word bar, this wasn’t a restaurant by any stretch of the imagination but the food was outstanding. We were really surprised and very happy. We had, had a wonderful couple of days with a sunset view from the boat too.
