In December 2010 I volunteered as crew on a sailing trip around the Canary Islands. The trip was with the charity 'The Jubilee Sailing Trust' who specialise in enabling people disabilities to sail as part of the crew. Our route was from Gran Canaria to La Palma and back.
We got stuck on the island of La Palma for 3 nights due to a storm, with winds of up to 68mph! The gusts got so strong that we had to strap the wheelchairs down in the bar....in the harbour, which has never been done before!
My highlight of the trip was seeing a pod of Dolphins on the trip back!!
