After a couple of days in the anchorage we found in Porquerlloes (now nick named pork rolls by Helen) a strong NW got up which the anchorage was open to and it was forecast for overnight; so, after an abortive attempt to get into the nearby marina, we anchored in a bay behind Giens along with a load of other boats. The strong wind disappeared not long after we got into the anchorage so that was a blessing. The next day we sailed round the coast of the bay to a little bay which we really like as an anchorage and are back for our third night after a sail round Cap Benat and back which was ruined by the wash from all the power boats - at times it was like the Solent in a force 6 without the wind.
We have now had 6 nights on the boat since leaving Frioul (and not been off the boat other than for swims). We still have about 4 days water and plenty of fuel but are out of fresh food as we had not anticipated being on the boat quite so long without shopping. We are not sure what we are going to do next as it depends on the weather but aim to stock up so that we have the option of heading for Corsica or the Balaerics if we get a good weather window.
