Not a lot to report today as we had a lay day and stayed at the Roggebot yacht harbour for a second night.
We went for a bike ride, of course, in the morning. Short one - 22 kms - through the countryside on the Flevoland Polder side of the river. Up though the woods and down next to the dyke.
 |
| This looks like a road, but actually it is the cycle path on the dyke. You can go all around the polder - don't know how far exactly, but it must be close to 150 kms around. |

| For a change, we were on top looking down. |
We got back to the boat in time to adjust the satellite dish for Skip to watch the Grand Prix on channel 4. We had closed the curtains before we went for the ride to keep the sun out the boat, and with the slight breeze and the fan going it was a reasonable 25C in the boat.
Boring race - no overtaking, but then that's Monaco for you. The most exciting bit was the creative parking by Vehrulain. Not his fault of course, but he still deserves the parking medal.
Skip spent an hour or so scrubbing the coachroof teak deck. We're not oiling this bit 'cos we don't have enough left, but he will put a dab on a patch so we can monitor how long it lasts and see if it is worth doing the rest.
Beer on the aft deck - La Chouffre - and then supper at the campsite cantina.
