What a small world!!!

Image
End of october we stayed in San Miguel, Tenerife for a few days. We tied up next to a huge sailboat and the Vanora next to a Trawler called "Tobago". Now the Vanora is anchoring around 200m away and the Tobago just pulled into the berth next to us! And the crew is from MANNHEIM! No, this is not a joke. This marina has more than 600 berths and this boat is right next to us. The directly came over the Atlantic but the crossing was a litlle tough and t hey have lost their Dinghy in a storm weihing around half a ton including engine, etc. It is sooo unbelievabkle that we meet them on this side of the world. Maybe i should take up playing lottery?

Some pictures

Here are some pictures which Tina from the Vanora took in the last days. Since one always has many pictures of other boats but never your own, we are quite happy to get some snaps. The photo of Lani is just tooooooooooooo good!

Lani´s sleeping bag

Since the warm sleeping bag was too warm and also getting too small we got this one from Neel, Anant and Julia. Lani is sleeping very well in it and she does not get too many mosquito bites either. It is made in India and looks great.
