Fond Farewell Faial

Horta Port & Marina
At last it was time to go.  Really.  The Cap’n risked life, limb and the odd dog bite to climb to a nearby miradouro to take in a final panoramic vista of the Horta Marina complex.

 Meanwhile back at the boat, GS got arty and prepared to paint up WJ3’s calling card on the marina seawall. 
A modest contribution by GS - showing our true blue!
And the Cap'n added the Finishing Flags to our artwork
Finally we slipped out of the marina (not exactly quietly – but we do relish a challenge) and headed off for Sao Jorge.  “We forgot to go see the old Whaling Station,” said the Cap’n ruefully as we watched Faial disappear behind us.
