the time has arrived. We will leave the Swedish shores on Tuesday. For me one more country to leave behind. For Magnus, it is untying the lines of his former life to enter a new phase : the nomadic life of seagoing voyagers.
New countries ahead, though we give up Scotland as we are running a little bit late and want to take advantage of a big high pressure over western Europe. So far the weather has been very unsettled, cold and miserable... So from the Kiel canal, may be directly to the UK where we will meet a friend of Magnus and then Brittany. If the weather plays tricks on us.. we will take the inner route through the canals of Holland (with the mast up).
I cannot wait to leave behind Nothern Europe, the English Channel is one gate to freedom, the Bay of Biscaye will be the other one, then even if the weather keep us put somewhere, it won't be much of a burden. I will update my blog as soon as I can, so keep checking.
