Mission: Internet

This morning, we decided to take the dinghy from our boat to the marina so that we could visit an internet cafe in the city before we make the short afternoon sail to Madeira. But just as we passed the breakwater, the motor on the dinghy died, and we started drifting out into the ocean. We managed to use the dinghy's single paddle (the other was lost some time ago) and our hands to pull ourselves against the wall.

We climbed up the slippery breakwater and walked along it to get to Chris' boat to get a long rope to drag the dinghy to his boat. Later, he will tow it and bring us back to our boat. In the meantime, we are at the internet cafe -- a successful mission!

The adventure never stops :)
