Quinta do Lorde

I'm told "Estate of the lords" is the literal translation. A quick hello from this Higher end Marina on the Eastern tip of Madeira Island. You could get a hotel room for what we pay to moor our floating home here, however Mary and Vicky are happy and that in itself is priceless. It's another sunny day in Paradise, Vicky and Mom and Kids are going to a swimming pool this afternoon, We all went to the beech yesterday but the 2 meter waves crashing on the beech was a little much for Vic, as the kids were getting swept off their feet by the undercurrent. I did have them by the hand and only lost my balance once, besides we have two kids for a reason.... odds are I won't loose them both. Needlesstosay it's the seaside pool today. As pools in the tropic are on my no go list, I'm spending sometime repairing the Genoa which had a small rip from our quick sail down here and digging out the charts for Canaries, and looking ahead to what courtesy flags we need to make up for the Caribbean, oh ya not to mention taste testing now of the the new Local beer called "Zarco", pilsner with 4.4% which is a full half point lower than the German brew, the score??? well of course it is .5 points less ... still great at 8.5 out of 10 again. Oh ya went to washroom flushed and washed
