Day 1 – Lots of discomfort
April 6, 2013
We left Douro River at 7am Friday morning – skies were clear, the northerlies had arrived, and the harbor entrance was open!
From the start of our day, things were uncomfortable – big waves, lots of wind (saw 40 knots twice), and putting in the time to get over the initial sea “blahs” does not make for the most pleasant of conditions.
