Thursday 27th of March 2025. My anchorage for the night. Carboneras.
I didn't get very far although it was downwind all the way.
Thursday 24th of July 2025. Culatra in the Rio Formosa.
I'll be here or hereabouts for the next 3 months. Not for the first time the Vesuvians have gatecrashed my party. For a moment there I thought it was my imagination, but then this!
I remember this place, Brendan. It´s the only ugly blot on what is a beautiful, unspoiled coastline, much of which is a national reserve area.
ReplyDelete(Btw, the name Carbonera has the root word "carbon" = coal, so it must have been a coal mine in its past?)
This whole area has been mined since ancient times for all sorts including gold I think. And there was me thinking that it had something to do with pasta.
