Paradise Regained. Mekićevica.

Another sunny day. Today we are going to Mekićevica, the bay our boat is named after. There was only a weak wind, that vanished completely when we passed between Hvar and the lighthouse. We had to motor the rest of the way. In Mekićevica we were offered to pick-up a buoy, took a few things ashore in out little dinghy and spent the day swimming, sun-bathing, reading. Very relaxing. In the middle of the day we went to say hello to the people in the restaurant, who of course were puzzled by our boat's name.
Mekićevica bay.
The sail back was really fun. We waited until the maestrale had decreased to just the right strength and then sailed in two long tacks with full main and genoa.
