Or so we thought… We started our trip by getting up at 3:30AM!! I think that 3:30 AM is an unreasonable time to get up but that is what we did. We wanted to get to Avalon in daylight so I guess we had to but GEEZ!!!
After going through some fairly rough seas (lots […]
Mike and I have been very busy lately! Well, Mike has been busy working on the boat and I have been busy workingโฆ His sewing is coming along nicely and I think he enjoys it. He even complained that he couldnโt get to his sewing today! Try to ignore the glare in the […]
We are now on our boat! ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐
We are in the process of unloading the car and getting our stuff put away. Manny and Lola did a terrific job of looking after the boat for us while we were away! It looks great and the humidifier thingy that we left on […]
We are currently in King City, CA which is a little less than 4 hours away from the boat! We will be there tomorrow – yay!
As soon as we got through the Mount Shasta area, the temperature went up and we had to take off our fleeces. It is quite warm and sunny! ๐ […]
We are currently in Yreka, CA so we made it over the border!! YAY!! We dealt with a very nice border guard this time so it was a much better experience than the last time we tried to cross into the States. I don’t think I should say what I thought of the first guard […]
We are now in Oxnard, CA. We pulled in yesterday evening at around 7 pm. Sorry for not posting earlier, but we were so tired that as soon as pulled into the slip, we went for dinner and then went directly to bed!
We now have night sailing under our belts and also sailing in […]
After a very long day, we have finally made it Catalina – just pulled in. I wanted to be sure to let everyone know that we made before I go to bed! Which I will be doing directly after eating the sloppy joes that Mike is now making.
It was definitely an exciting day […]
Due to extremely dense fog, Mike and I are not sailing to Catalina Island today. We did leave at 4 am but had to turn back as the fog rolled in on us. A very frustrating morning I must say. I have never seen fog like that before I hope I don’t see it again […]
We’ve taken the boat out twice now, once by ourselves and once with an instructor. The once by ourselves was enough to prove that we needed instruction! Docking was the major problem for us, the sailing was fine. Sailing was easy, docking proved to be an issue (at least for me.) Lucky me, I got […]
Hi all,
I know we haven’t posted anything in a while, but we’ve just been busy sight-seeing around the San Diego area. It is a neat city, but it does have a slight pollution problem. And I know you will expect pictures of our sight-seeing but as usual, we were a little lax in that […]
