Navigation #57 Navigation Marciana Marina-rada di Portoferraio, Napoleon's exile city
Not much wind, a lot of engine but only 2h+ navigation. We hope to get a berth tomorrow at the port but they haven't replied us. There is going to be a lot of wind, so we'd better find a shelter. In the meantime we are mooring in front of the city. I'm disappointed that Napoleon's house is closed for renovation... We came all this way and cannot visit it! The next day the port called and we got a spot, just right when we could hear thunder and the rain pouring. However it's not the old port within the old city, but the new port 2 km away. But it's still nice to get a shelter, although it's not the cheapest one. It was 95 euros for the night. More expensive than Porto Vecchio. It's the most expensive port we have been to. But it allowed us to visiti the city, surrounded by fortresses and home to Napoleon's exile house between 1814 and 1815. Not sure if it's the absence of the 360 camera or else, but I am getting less views on my shorts on...
