Life on board in Lanzarote

Stu and Laura have now been in Lanzarote for 4 days since Alan and Margaret left on Saturday for the UK.  The marina is lovely and the sun is shining.  We met up with Stu’s family friends John and Hilary on Saturday afternoon who happened to be holidaying here.  We were glad they were able to come aboard Ocean Lady, and were grateful to them for taking the time to see us on the last day of their holiday!

 

We have treated ourselves to a meal out at a nice restaurant, but have been good and cooked on board the other nights, although this is very difficult when there are so many nice looking places to eat!  We have been struggling with wifi here so apologies to family and friends waiting to skype. 

 

Turns out life on a yacht is very sociable, we have met other couples who have quit jobs and set to sea for a year or more!  Last night we were invited onto a Dutch couple’s boat for drinks, they left this morning so we are now waiting to meet the new neighbours. 

 

We hope to finish jobs today and then go for a look around the volcanoes here on Thursday. Fingers crossed we plan to leave on Sunday for the Cape Verde Islands.

 

Love to all at home especially those in West Drayton, thinking of you! 

Stu and Laura
