The Tall Ships Races, Balmy Day 2

The second day of the Tall Ships Races 2018 in Stavanger not only features the crew parade but sports a balmy 35 degrees centigrade as well.

Luckily there was a small breeze coming on from the ocean, that not only offered perfect sailing conditions for those not moored in Vågen, but also provided some coolant to everybody.

The local Water Company was also handing out cool, refreshing water to passersby.

The Tall Ships Races 2018 is turning out to be a great success, as expected. Hopefully, the weather gods will smile benevolently down on us until Sunday.

In the meantime, here are some impressions from today, including the crew parade.
