Sozopol, 11 September

After having enjoyed a few restful beach days, living in the marina in Sozopol it was time to lift LelleBelle out of the water and put her on land for the next 7 months. 

LelleBelle and Lelle enjoying time in the marina. 

The usual trek from the bathroom..

Down....

Ah, made it!

Marina port Sozopol in the early morning

A close up

The lift with Krassi and Stassi and a number of other helpers.

Too nerve racking for Leslie who kept her distance 

Stassi, Michael and Carl supervising.

And down she goes.

Careful

Almost done.

A day of mixed emotions. Having planned this part of the trip for 3 years and never knowing what the next day will bring, let alone where we would end up, we are happy and proud to have come so far, but sad that it is over. We have already started talking about the next leg, that is the Mediterranean. But first a few more months on dry land in Sweden until November and South Africa until March.

Have heard from friends that it has been difficult or impossible to leave comments to the blog. Sorry about that but it is still possible to leave comments on mslellebelle@gmail.com which we can add to the blog.
