Ep24 | Bay of Biscay, Part 2: Exploring the Quiberon Peninsula & sailing with Chiquita

We find ourselves in Quiberon, France. The Quiberon Peninsula is a tourist hotspot in Brittany with around 30 km of coastline. This part of Brittany is known for its beautiful long beaches. However, we only scrape the surface of this gem as we only stop for 1 night before sailing farther south to Ile d'Yeu. In just the short time we have, tho, we discover a little of the area's cute neighborhoods, art, a fairytale castle and the rugged coastline. The boys, including Anna & Sergey's boys, of course, found everything to be a new playground! ? In their perspective there was much more to explore! ?(Alexi plucking figs from tree) Like mother, like son! Back at the boat, all the boys were busy creating their own language called Rikki Tikki, while we adults got ready for the next passage to I'l de Y'eau. As you can see, we set sail before Chiquita - and they passed us up, as usual, BUT - wait and see who wins "the race" (which, any sailor knows - whenever 2 sailboats sail the same way, it's an unspoken understanding that it's a race! ? ) As you can probably hear - we were sailing against the wind?ideal for us - for speed?NOT so ideal for a catamaran! We were racing along!...and the dolphins love speed and came out to play!! We arrived Ile d'Yeu just before sunset?and BEFORE Chiquita! A first for us?That was a little satisfying, we must admit. What a beautiful passage! Btw - on the way, we discovered that an amazing weather-window to cross the Bay of Biscay diagonally opened up! We decided to skip touring the island and sail on early the next morning. That meant we would have to leave, Chiquita, though - they planned to take it easy with many small stops down the coast of Europe, but our goal was to make it to the Canaries as fast as possible! So, this was our chance! Time to prepare for a 2-day passage, our very first - which seemed like a looong passage at this time ? ------------------- CREDITS: @DmitrievaAnna@DmitrievaAnna @Blackie6 -MOVAVI VIDEO EDITOR- Suite 24 -EPIDEMIC SOUND- Weather Any Storm - Cody Francis La Fiesta del Solar - Guataca Groove Dogs - V.V.
