An ENE wind at 8-12 knots made for a nice sail from the Porto Vechio anchorage in Cefalu to Termini Imerese.  As we entered the harbor, our friend Jayne on Aorangi was headed out for the second time that day with a group from Lega Navale, the local sailing club.  We tied up in the slip next to hers for an unexpected reunion — she had to delay her departure for the Tuscan Islands, and we decided to ride out some windy weather in this safe harbor.  Two other boats that were in Gaeta this past winter are also here — small world!
