That this day would come, unfortunately, "Annetbenoit" left us yesterday after two weeks spent on board with us. A Christmas and New Year after they decided to go barouder few days in the Sine-Saloum before flying back to France . We were so good together! To the point that Roberto and I had seen when they were sent to their respective employers apply for sabbatical leave to cross the ocean Atlantique avec nous jusqu'au Brésil. Mais, nous ne pouvions les laisser mettre en péril de si belles et si prometteuses carrières sur un coup de tête. Il était de notre devoir et de notre responsabilité d'intervenir, comme seuls de vrais amis l'auraient fait et de les aider à quitter le petit havre de paix que nous avions fini par construire.
Compte-tenu de l'état de complète béatitude dans lequel « Annetbenoit » étaient plongés, il nous a fallu attaquer fort pour les ramener à the harsh reality of life. First in Casamance, we found ourselves within 30 km of clashes between separatist rebels and soldiers who, it seems, in 7 fatalities. But that did not more anxious, "Annetbenoit. We were on the water while the shots were ashore. As a precaution, we've still left the area and decide to move in the Gambia. To get there instead of the day initially navigation prévu pour parcourir les 60 miles nautiques qui nous séparaient de Banjul, la capital, il nous a fallu le double. Et quelle navigation ! tout le long au moteur, à remonter contre le vent et à forcer les vagues, au point de ne pas pouvoir dépasser la vitesse de 3 nouds. Bora vomit 2 fois, Benoit accepte de tester mon nouveau médicament espagnol contre le mal de mer, et Anne lutte contre la nausée en avalant une tartine de Nutella et en s'allongeant pour attendre que cela passe. Quand, après une nuit entière de navigation houleuse (durant laquelle seule Anne a dormi comme une souche), Roberto nous annonce with our current conditions of navigation, we have for another 12 hours before arrival, not even a movement of despair, a situation completely mastered e by our 2 friends who did not leave by removing the inconvenience. We finish when even reaching Banjul, after doubling time trip originally planned, it is too late to make representations & # 232; s customs and police, thus losing a day for them, but they are always smiling. The next morning, Roberto from shore to legalize our situation and we are waiting on board. We anchored in the port's commercial capital, so in a rather bare charm. The wind rises and swells particularly unpleasant form making the stay on board very uncomfortable. Add to this the imperative that I have to do in Bora his assessment "musical awakening" for that "Annetbenoit" CNED can send it to their return to France (I do not want to test the reliability of the mail Gambia), which means to suffer for them 2 hours repeating the same song in search of the right tone. That's the cocktail that we have compiled to help with Roberto "Annetbenoit" to leave us. It is rather successful because they decided after much hesitation to leave at Banjul (après 24h seulement passé en Gambie) pour prendre un ferry qui les ramènera au Sénégal.
