Yacht trip

General 


Elliott was was good today.

Activities

After another buffet breakfast of toast and croissants we spent the day at the beach again with more body boarding and jumping the waves as well as Elliott reading more of "Where The World Ends" by Geraldine McCaughrean. We had lunch at the hotel snack bar again and  Elliott had another ham and cheese toastie.

After lunch we headed back to the beach for more body boarding and wave jumping. We headed back to our hotel room late afternoon as we had booked a yacht trip and so were picked up by Slivestre in a minibus from the hotel with two other families and driven to the harbour where we got on his yacht. Silvestre and his co-sailor Danny sailed us across the bay and we sat on the front of the boat which was fun but unfortunately we didn't see any dolphins or whales on our trip (apparently it's quite common to see these):


Then they salied the yacht and to a small island off the coast where we stopped in a cove to go snorkelling:


We saw some fish but unfortunately I think us looking for fish frightened them away. After half an hour in the sea we headed back to the harbour and then back to the hotel where we went to the Madeira themed restaurant for tea and Elliott had pork, beef and chicken kebab chunks with chips. After tea we went to the hotel bar where there was live music and then we went back to our room to go to sleep.
