Familiar faces at Sant Josep de sa Talaia, Ibiza

Julie

We pulled up the anchor in Sant Antoni de Portmany and set off. The first few hours were quite rough. The waves caused the boat to roll heavily and Finn got pretty seasick. It’s always tough for him, but he, and especially we, have learned to manage it by now. Fortunately, once we rounded the corner, the sea calmed down considerably. On the AIS, we suddenly spotted Sailing Donna (Caetlin and Ben) in the distance. What a pleasant coincidence that we eventually entered the same bay together. Running into familiar faces on the water is always a special moment. Once we reached our spot, we dropped anchor and prepared something to eat. But just as we were about to relax, we heard a strange sound coming from under the boat. The anchor chain had wrapped around a rock. That called for re-anchoring. With our anchor securely repositioned, it began to rain. Surprisingly, we didn’t mind at all. Rain on the deck always has something soothing about it. It was the perfect time for an afternoon nap. Later that evening, we stopped by Caetlin and Ben’s boat for a quick chat. Catching up was a lovely way to end the day. The next morning, we started the day with breakfast on board, joined by Caetlin and Ben. Afterward, we took the dinghy and went exploring a nearby cave. It was dark and mysterious inside, while the sky outside grew increasingly ominous. Fortunately, the rain held off. That evening, Caetlin and Ben came over to our boat and we spent the night playing board games together. It was a fun and cozy end to the day!
