Jennie B - ARC Baltic Day 4 - The Wind still blows



We and the rest of the rally crews filled our fourth day on the rally with a tour by coach of some of Bornholm's cultural and social attractions. We visited several harbours on Bornholm's East coast including Svaenke, our original destination on Bornholm. Having looked at the seas pounding the shore and the narrow harbour entrances we were very happy to be in Rønne. Svaenke is a very pretty town and has the added attraction of Bornholm's only, and very good, brewery.

We started the day with a visit to the massive and imposing ruins of Hammershus castle. After a few more stops many crew had worked up a good thirst so a visit to the bar at the Svaenke brewery was a top priority. Which did mean that several people had a few zzzz's on the bus or, if not then, when they got back on their boats.

The original plan was for the rally to leave tomorrow (Friday) but with strong winds blowing from the direction we need to go for the next leg, the start has been put back to Saturday. Another good decision.
