There are going to be two legs... I will stop in the Acores for a week, and then to Douarnenez, France.
Anybody has advices on what to in the acores by the way?

I realize that I am not exactly on spot for this diary. When sailing autarcy dictates a lot of things.. But maybe it's also a small scale experiment on what we will all need to do soon...

I would have thought that after sailing the atlantic what you'd want to do in the Azores is sleep.

Sounds like fun.

I think after 3 weeks on the water I will rush to the mountain and put my face in the basalt! I will welcome the mineral world of volcanoes I think...

I think you're exactly spot on and it wouldn't surprise me if De would agree. I would actually think it could be a "dry-run" for things to come.

This sounds like a grand undertaking, I hope you and the two others will enjoy it to the fullest. Although I don't really understand why you wouldn't bring a small hand-pump with an interconnected hose and you make your own little shower on the deck. Then again, I also can relate to the sheer exhilaration when it does rain.
