Voyage Day 6 - Monday 24 November 2025
​🌦️ 🌬️
Rain am, sunny spells in Muros, 14°c N wind pm
Up for breakfast at
 0730. The plan for the day is to wait in Muros until the wind changes to the northerly direction and head south for Porto. I had a session of note making for this blog and around 1200 Angie’s and I went for a walk, out of the Marina and pst the fish market along the coast road south for a mile or so. We passed a nice sandy beach. The road was tree lined to start but then the buildings became increasingly industrial and also derelict. There was also a mini outdoor gym and sprinting track before we got to a fisherman’s shrine and crucifix opposite the Toyota service garage..  At this point we turned back to the ship in time for lunch.  We left the quayside around 1430h and headed south with the topsail and forestaysail pulling us through the water. I took a short nap, then did some more photo edits before supper. NEWS JUST IN! Portuguese dockers are striking tomorrow until the 27 November. We can’t go into Porto so we are heading for the Spanish port of Vigo. Various plans are being made to move departing guests to Porto from Vigo on change over day on 27 November. This won’t affect me and Angie as we are on board all the way to Tenerife. Overnight we were woken up by the noise of the bow thrusters when we arrived at the Marina in Vigo around 0220h. Today’s pictures are from our walk along the coast road in Muros and voyage crew aloft in the rigging.
