Nous sommes enfin aux Îles de la madeleine. Après 23h30 de navigation, nous sommes arrivés à Havre Aubert. Nous avons fait en moyenne de 6 à 7 noeuds avec un vent Sud Est, Sud. J'avais très hâte de voir ce coin de paradis, comme le décrivent ceux qui ont dans le coeur cet endroit et qui y reviennent fréquamment. Ont sent la mer et la vie des pêcheurs, à voir la quantité de bateau de pêche ont comprend que c'est la source de revenue principale pour les madelinots. Le territoire de ces 12 îles s'étend sur 100 kilomètres. Une population de 12 milles habitants occupents ce littoral bordé de plage de sable fin.
