ALGORTA over the cliffs

ALGORTA. Since I won't be in Christmas this side of the Ocean, I went for a Christmas sail with old pals A and C. We boiled water, made coffee, and had it from some plastic glasses - nearly as a celebration - over the winter sea of my hometown of Algorta, on the Bay of Biscay.





Como no voy a estar en Navidades a este lado del Atlántico, me fui de regata navideña con mis viejos amigos A y C. Hervimos agua, hicimos café, y lo tomamos en unos vasos de plástico - a manera de celebración casi - sobre el mar de invierno de mi pueblo de Algorta y sus acantilados, en el Golfo de Vizcaya.

    So pretty. Looks like the shore of Lake Huron or looking across Marquette Bay on Lake Superior. The lakes are known for their lighthouses and the first picture reminded me of that.

    Not fair! Whilst you are sailing that beautiful ocean, and drinking ( i assume) good coffee, i am running around after 4 and 5 year olds at Kindergarten and working hard!! :(

    The shades of blue and turquoise reflect the dream and mystery of sailing. I hope that the winds were kind and that the memories are as wonderful as these photos!

    Bises,

    Excellent photos. I`m a little jealous that you are able to swim anywhere you like at any moment :)
