Yesterday we worked hard. I sanded the passerel (gang plank) and Kevin put up sails and began polishing the boat. Even tho I used an electric sander it was still back breaking work!

Today we are joining friends at Vonitsa for the annual May Day Celebration. :-) Locals from near and far bring their horses, with beautifully braided manes and tails, to race on the beach. And farmers from surrounding areas donate sheep which are roasted on spits! The meat is then carved and served on newspaper, with hunks of fresh bread. Of course there is also music and liquid refreshment to boot!

Party time here we come! A well deserved day of rest!

Looks like some hard graft! Enjoy the day off. Meeting the chicks for movies this afternoon, going to see Salmon Fishing in Yemen heard it is good. Healthy eating starts today! Polished off a whole packet of Tam Tams on my own! And quickly snuck in a Wakerberry yesterday afternoon! Xx
