In a couple of weeks, I'll be taking of for another nice sailing trip. This trip is going to be something different, for sure. Hopefully I wil be able to maintain an online shipslog again:
We're back in the real world again, and it feels like hell. Compared to the wondeful time we had during the 3 weeks of sailing, office hours seem to take your will to live. And the constant gray veil that covers the Dutch skies isn't making things easier. But it does make the memories even better!
So, where DID we go during those 3 weeks? Before we left, I tried to give an idea of the route we could have sailed. Of course things turned out to be a little different...
Finally, at home, I was able to serve you with all the pictures. Be prepared, it's quite a collection...
Update
To every log-entry I added the related pictures in the comments. So, to enjoy the full story, you should take it one step at a time.
