Benalmadena to Almerimar

We left Benalmadena at 7.30 this morning, heading for Almerimar, about 90 nautical miles away. Head wind all the way, up to 25 knots of wind to buck into, so the motor has been hard at work yet again. We should arrive about 8.00 pm tonight. The coast in this area is steep hills covered in sheets of white plastic because this is the part of Spain where most of the winter vegetables are grown and the plastic sheeting is shade from the sun.
