We had to arrive Barcelona in the middle of the hottest days of the year: a hot air wave crossed the city making the mercury rising to the top of the thermometer. It was har to walk and even to breathe but we managed to fix some issues about a visa for Tim, who was planning a trip to Russia in September, walk along the Barceloneta, the latin district, Paseo de Gracia and the famous Guell park. We also tried to take the cable railway to Montjuich but the strong cross winds make them closed it just before we could take it. This is the fourth time I try to take this railway with no success in any of them.

Flight to Palma de Mallorca was normal: we all fell asleep immediately after sitting in our places. Mike, yet another pilot in the group, was waiting for us in Palma's airport. Mike and Nicole are Jamie´s mates in Quest flight camp, in Florida. Mike was the last member of the american crew.

We met Fernando, the Ipar Haizea's owner in the port and he kindly was our tourist guide in the city after leaving our baggage in the boat. Fernando demonstrated to own a wide and deep knowledge about the old town of Palma de Mallorca: his explanations about buildings, customs and history let us know the most interesting side of the island. Added to his valuable guidance, he invited us to try some cured ham with wine and olives that, I regret saying this, I'm not sure if all of us really appreciated it (I fear the USA natives are not used to high standing gastronomy). Anyway, I did appreciate in thename of all of them. Everything was so good, thanks Fernando!!
A lo largo de la tarde vino mi amiga Cristina. Nos conocimos en Febrero durante mi primera visita a Palma, y siempre está dispuesta a subir a un velero. Aunque no podía acompañarnos en el viaje por tener a su familia de visita en la isla, sí que quiso mantener el contacto con nosotros mientras duró nuestra permanencia en el archipiélago. Cristina vivió un montón de años en el Caribe así que su inglés es muy fluído, circunstancia que rápidamente aprovechó Timothy para acapararla un buen rato con sus historias.I
n the afternoon my friend Cristina came to join us for a while. I met her in february, during my first visit to Palma and she is always willing to come aboard a sailboat. She couldn't came whith us because she was hosting her father for some days but she kept the contact while we stayed in the islands. Cristina lived in the Caribe for a lot of years so she speaks a fluent english, what was used by Tim to capture her interest thanks to his stories.

The last crew mates arrived next to midnight. My ex-work mate (and currently close friend) Nerea came with two of her friends who were unknown for us, Odei and Ander. The gap between both groups couldn't be wider: ones couldn't speak spanish while the others couldn't speak english. And more, Jamie, in her usual way, didn't hesitate yelling "They are babies!!". I felt quite bad previewing the days to come alltogether in such a reduced space like a sailboat but it was too late to do anything except stepping forward so I did my best to accomodate them inside and Tim and me lied down on deck as good sailors do.
