Daniel and Dad
were awake before everyone else, so when they started getting the
boat ready for leaving I managed to get out of bed. Daniel drove us
out of the bay and nearly immediately we had decent wind. Annalena
and Rhiannon had woken up by then, too, so we were all enjoying
breakfast. Due to that reason the sails didn't go up until the meal
had finished. But when they did we had the good wind the whole time.
With a wind coming from behind we shot past the church/lighthouse
island we had passed on our way south and Primosten was left behind
fast, too. Along the way it was discussed if we should go to a marina
again, or camp out in a bay. As Daniel wanted to go to Zrce we headed
that way. A few hours before arriving he realised that there are two
named like that. It's written differently, but sound the same. So we
carried on on our way to Zirje. As we had only bought the food to
survive until to the next marina in Hvar, we had to go shopping on
the way. I offered Kaprje, as Dads navigation book said it's got a
supermarket there. Shortly before arriving Daniel red in the book
again, that it can be difficult to get in there with larger boats. So
our grocery aim turned to Muna, on Zirje island.
Getting in was a
bit hairy, as the wind wasn't in our favour but we managed to land
directly in front of the supermarket. Which was just being filled up.
I managed to charge my laptop to last another day and we got food for
the night. Dad and I spent some time on the boat whilst the rest
walked around the town. Once they came back we got ready to leave. We
had a play full cat having a go at the end of the lines. The cat had
tagged along with the others and was rather friendly.
Left the harbour
and whilst four of us enjoyed a game of Skipo, Dad steered us around
the island to another anchorage. We set speed records of 0.3 knots
coming around there and when Dad later had a game with them and I
steered that dropped down to zero. Motor on and we carried on around
the island to our anchor place.
Second time
anchoring on a boy and once again they are different. These ones you
take the rope through a loop at the top and there are two you secure
yourself on. Did that and whilst Rhiannon and Dad chilled on the
boat, Annalena, Daniel and me went exploring in a cave in the side of
the cliffs we had moored to.
Later on a good
dinner prepared by Daniel and Annaena. Spaghetti with a sharp salami
sauce.
