Day 4 2010-06-20: Strong winds

In the morning of this day we saw that the weather is cloudy and very windy, but we thought it is still allright and decided to paddle. We left our beach at 9.30 am and continued towards south. The wind was blowing to our faces from southeast but was relatively ok until about 1 pm when it started to really blow. We tried to continue still, but it became so difficult to get forward and about anywhere that we decided to take cover from an small bushy island and decided to wait the wind to calm down. That never happened though, so we had to stay for the night. The island was filled with small trees and bushes but we managed to find a spot for the tent first from the shore and -after we had to move because the wind was pushing up the water- then from the other side of the island. The weather forecast in the evening told us that it was blowing 14 m/s.
