The America's Cup in Barcelona

 

I haven't posted for a long time, but it's blog anniversary day and I've recently been in Barcelona where managed to see the America's Cup, so thought I'd post some photos.

It was the first America's Cup which Britain has competed in for 60 years and the first which it won a race for 90 years. Of course, the result was a shame but all credit to the New Zealand team: a fast boat, well sailed - in particular, in reading the wind shifts.

Great fun to watch, amazing to see them lift up onto their foils and fly.
