the weather is miserable. i went to bed really early yesterday and slept until 9:30 this morning. it is so dark outside, i missed my automatic waking hour at 6:30 am... I guess it is good to get some rest before we leave. since there is nothing really to do but wait, i went around taking some pictures for you all, so, not much text but lots to look at here:
- my bunk
- the galley with more cleaning stuff to put away
- the saloon, still set up as home office
- the fo'c'sl stowed with lots of sails, the outboard and the potato basket
- the luxurious head (bathroom)
the other crazy idea
the last ocean, the unknown territory (or so we white landlubbers think) - we're thinking of the northwest passage. learning about the culture there and showing our son the ice before it melts and that place forever changes ... we just need a boat!
the crazy idea
there will be a land adventure in the not too far future, and it looks like it will involve this big old wall. walking the length of it, from the desert to the sea, and hopefully catching a sailboat ride back home. or starting at the sea and catching a train back to europe? in 2015? - well, we might settle for Hadrian's wall in the UK first... to practice... and something more local and equaly gorgeous right here in the US...
