Jun. 28, 2009 - Day 1 - Vlissingen

Very first thing this morning it was brilliant sunshine and clear blue skies. But by 08.00 hrs it had gone all murky and horrible! We headed round to the fueling pontoon, filled up with diesel and pumped out the holding tank. There was no wind to speak of and we motored all the way up to Veere.

By the time we entered the Kanaal door Walcheren the murk had cleared and it had turned into a rather oppressive afternoon. Uneventfull passage down the canal livened up only by the tedious wait for the last bridge at Vlissingen to open!

Found our way into the the VVW Schelde marina and tied up. By this time the temperature was 26C in the shade. We went for a walk into the town and inspected the Michel De Ruyter marina with a view to stopping there on the way back.

Now back on board Emjaytoo and yes we have WiFi!. Fingers crossed for no fog/mist tomorrow morning. The forecast is for a scorcher tomorrow - with, maybe some wind in the afternoon.

Next stop - Oostende!
