Once again we loaded the boat to the top with all the nice things Sal's mum likes and headed for Guernsey. The crossing was as usual a nice sail with the wind in the NW but a large swell that kept us rolling. While in Guernsey we caught up with friends and family and were kept busy with all their news. We met up with Jason Wood a very good friend of ours we had'nt seen for 5 years and he and his girlfriend Aga a polish girl kept us amused with all their tales. We didnt get the chance to go to Dielette this year as weather and time didnt alow it. The Guernsey sea festival was cancelled due to bad weather but it was no loss as it has turned into a regatta for snoby racing yachts. We saw the last night of the proms on a big screen in the marina and a firework display after.All very nice. We left Guernsey with a good forcast of NW 2-3 and 2-4' swell only to find after 5 hrs we had a SW 2 with a 3.5 metre swell from the NW so turned back and left on the sunday after that and had a wonderfull sail back to Treguier. We got in after the office shut and left in the morning before it opened but left the money for the night in the office post box too many people try to get away without paying which we feel is not good for the others that sail in the area.Now back in Morlaix for the winter we have logged 621.7 miles in varying degrees of wind,rain and sun but all in all a good summer. We are asked by alot of people why we dont go father afield our answer is we have sailed Feels Good from alicante in spain around the Spanish and Portuguese coasts and find now I am getting older we like to day sail around the brittany coast which we still consider to be one of the most beautifull in western europe. Dont be in a hurry to head south you will be missing a treasure chest of beauty with some of the most interesting and friendly people you could meet.
