Not sure what time we enter the river, but possibly after dark as we are expected to arrive at about 22:30. We are currently at: 35 31 1 N 6 59 24 W 18c and cloudy and a slight long swell We should be off Tangier around midday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope the weather stays good for the sail in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jpalbny Posted May 9, 2019 #163 Share Posted May 9, 2019 (edited) I assumed it was the Consierge [sic]. If so, TTS gave a most excellent hint. Edited May 9, 2019 by jpalbny 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you always know that they would sail up the river, since Cadiz is the only port listed for Seville? .... or is this a last minute decison by Captain depending on conditions.

Rare jpalbny Posted May 9, 2019 #171 Share Posted May 9, 2019 That Sherry tasting looks like fun! We have been to Cadiz twice. Once we took the train to Seville; the other we got off in Jerez instead and toured the Riding School before going to a few tastings. Such fun! Enjoy! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow! That’s the first time I’ve ever heard of that as I thought the last night was always casual. Why the change? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
