Back in the Briney

Today we have mostly been doing motoring. Indeed we have motored all the way down the Kiel Canal from Rendsburg to the end and then down the Elbe to Cuxhaven
The trip down the canal was slow but relaxing and undertaken in blazing sunshine such that we had to rig up a parasol to stave off sunstroke
When we left the canal we benefitted from the tide and found ourselves doing more than 7 and frequently 8 knots ( which is fast!)
The entry into Cuxhaven was exciting and we enjoyed 'sausage a la surprise' to celebrate what has been a long but very successful day heading West
No wifi so photos tomorrow from Nordeney
