Greta Thunberg & Sailboat Crew Halfway Across Atlantic On Trip To Spain
Greta, her father Svante, and crew of La Vagabonde have travelled more than midway to the destination in Madrid.
The group departed on Wednesday morning Nov. 13 from Hampton, Va. on the 48' catamaran sailboat, La Vagabonde.
Capt. Riley Whitelum said their voyage was bound for Portugal, Spain or France.
From there Greta plans to attend the climate meeting in Madrid, Spain scheduled for Dec. 2-13.
