Back on the water after two months



Came back to UK to sort out a Spanish visa. All done, not a simple task . Fridge on boat was supposed to be fixed in my absence but apparently not so waited for a part which does do the job now have to move to a new port in the right direction but very annoying.
Plan is to head up Messina Strait and head for Stromboli , across to Sardinia and then Menorca. Stromboli is behaving exactly as i wanted but unfortunately i am not there which is very annoying. Perhaps a blessing because it’s a bit more furious than usual. I have to pass Scyla and Charibdis first 😳.Apart from that no great action this marina is very nice the people are very friendly and helpful, fownside is very are very few boat trades hence my protracted problem.
40 immigrants turned up last night in the compound next door. They’re wandering around in red shirts and blue shorts after processing . It’s their season over here now too.!
Festival in town last night. I missed the fireworks at12pm.               

















My local beach , not too busy.
View from hotel room when I flew back to Catania. Etna’s blowing as well at the moment so bad timing for that as well.
