We also have a close encounter with a sailboat and a fishing boat in thick fog.. a little to close for our comfort. The wind picks up as we get close to Europes most western point Cabo da Roca before we get a moment of nice and calm sailing as we enter rio Tejo the current gets strong and we have to enter the marina when it's at it's peak. After that we think we deserve a nice dinner at a nearby restaurant. We are a middle aged couple that has left our hectic business lives to go sailing with our boat Fridá af Wisby and our cat Litza. Our goal is not to go to a specific place but to reach a state of mind where we can really enjoy life. The sailing in our home water the Baltic Sea was part of our preparation to sail to the Mediterranean Sea. We sailed to Normandy France in the autumn 2020 and in spring 2021 we continued south along the Atlantic coast of Europe. Anders has been at the sea most of his life and sailed for the Swedish national dingy sailing team as a young man. Gitte has also grown up with boat and spent every summer sailing with her father as a teenager but made a pause of about 15 years without sailing as an adult, had just begun to pick-up the interest before she meet Anders a 4 years ago. Onboard we also have our cat Litza a 3 year old Devon Rex we call her the cattain because cats always decide over their humans. Litza is a Devon Rex cat and she is the real cattain aboard. Fridá af Wisby is a Wauquiez 47 pilot saloon that we Gitte and Anders bought in UK in 2019 and that we have sailed to Gotland and in season 1 2020 we sail in the Baltic Sea.
