Full disclosure - we didn’t go there, just walked by and it caught my eye. (I’m sure their Guinness, etc is good; it just seemed odd to go to an Irish bar in Barcelona. But it’s probably somewhat “exotic” for the Spanish to go to an Irish bar? Not so much for a North American.) Add this place...

Rounding the Fastnet. At night. In Barcelona. (Wonder if the locals know what Fastnet is?)

And their eyes - check them both out! :). (Keeping with the random theme...oops, wrong thread...)

Actually, it was the day before. Combined effects of my local bay that enhances the SE’ly when it blows, and a boat that really shouldn’t be out on mooring buoy all winter...(an old Ranger 23). Another shot from the same day (but early in the morning). Someone with a big beak, sharp talons...

Likely somewhere on the 5.9 meter contour (S of Savary).  Can’t recall exactly as pic is from 4 years ago, our last hurrah with the ancient little Cal 20.

I’ve always like this pic because the night was dramatic.  I’d poked my head out as the wind whistled increasingly dramatically in the rigging, and we watched excitedly as the night closed in around us.  Anchored in a very open, exposed anchorage (the only kind there) just south of Savary...

Last night’s aurora borealis from the 49th parallel.

This pic is called, “There goes the night.” Someone sailing into my local bay, taking advantage of the night’s thermal winds (accelerated by it being a fjord bounded on both sides by high mountains).  Today is expected to be the hottest day ever recorded in Canadian history - even here in the...
