Mea Requies nearly home


















             Drive to our "quarantine buoy"




          We liked the buoy, but soon Nigel came and informed us that we had to go
          to another buoy closer to the shipyard. Well, that was no problem. Then
          there was packing and several jobs to be done so that the shipyard could
          lift out the ship in the next few days. For the 17th we have organized a
          flight to Zurich with BA and hope that everything will work out with the
          water taxi (to pick us up at the Mea Requies), the taxi to the airport and
          the flight. Yes, I experienced a lot compared to last year's trip, but I could
          very  well  do  without  certain  experiences  with  the  Covid.  In  any  case,  I
          would like to take this opportunity to thank Elisabeth and my fellow sailors
                                   again,  with  whom  I  was  able  to  experience
                                   very  nice  days.  Also  my  last  fellow  sailor
                                   Markus, who in the last two days, participated
                                   without  complaint  and  made  the  best  of
                                   it.  Maybe  they  classify  us  in  Kloten  as  high-
                                   performance athletes, then (after we were in
                                   France  before  England)  we  don't  have  to  go
                                   into quarantine. We deserved it ...
                                   And this is what our wandering looked like:
