The Story of guy and gal!

We are overwhelmed after reading this post on a fellow sailors blog.  Read and see what really happened http://sailpanache.com/archives/1092 Thank You s/v Panache for the detailed report.  THANK YOU GOD AND YOUR HOSTS OF ANGELS. No one was hurt as the account shows. We are so thankful of  our blessings................. White Shell drug her mooring for about a half a mile and has a few tatters in her tarps. Lue and Claes

The Captain took his skiis out of storage and spent  the day up on our local hill: Mount Washington.  How great is that?  Slowly we are getting caught up on our jet lag and our land legs and even getting used to the temperature.  Does seem strange that it is still light out at 8 pm but hey just gives us more time to enjoy.   Check out the other pages for a few new pictures and items.   Lue and Claes back in Canada and lov'in it!!!!

Having done this a few seasons now we have it down pat to five days!!!!  Also, we must  be getting used to the weather as we are not as sweaty it seems.  Perhaps we are just not wanting to get back to the SNOW!!! A few of our friends report that darn white stuff in the Comox Valley.  Please Lord, have Your way it by the time we land on Thursday!!!!! Enjoyed a rather relaxing day today- Sunday are usual day of rest.   Yet we still managed to prepare the sails for storage- taking them out of their pretty blue bags and laid out in the sun to dry.   Dis assembled a few more electronic controllers to remove and relocate to a bodega safely tucked away from the dampness and expected rains of the summer.  We are sure please with our experience so far:  so quiet and peaceful here. No stress as the manager Carlito and his son are so organized.  Colette and Murray from ISLAND MARINE  offer 8 mooring balls for long or s...

Booked our flights with American Airlines through our Scotia Rewards plan and are saving all sorts of dollars.  Our Canadian dollar is flying high and so are we as we got an incredible price for our return tickets home today!  God is good as I have been watching for the last two months and this is the lowest fare yet!  We will depart San Salvador at 08:30 am and arrive in Victoria at 23:43 pm.   Getting excited now to see our family and our furry friend Joey!  Talk to you later............Lue and Claes

Please check the pages on the blog as I have updated most of them .  You can get yourself caught up on what we have been up to.  Some of you don't have hydro because of the strong winds...........so we are hoping to Skype you soon to be sure that you are safe and out of harms way.  No hydro probably so now phones....we will wait for a day or so. Feel free to call when ever!!!! Will down load some more pictures today: love to share those with you so hope that you are clicking on the Photo Galley link. 

After a bus ride from Copan, that started at 6 am this morning north to San Pedro to transfer and onward to the coast we found that the ferry had been cancelled due to the weather.  Once again we were met by a helpfull cabbie, who took us around to find a suitable hotel for the night.  We continue to find great places for very reasonable prices: nice big bed, A/C tv and wifi, hot showers and a pool with breakie in the morning for $32.00.  We even have a fridge for the beer!  Mind, you The Captain is already in bed after having a root canal done today!!!

Further to My Pondering that I posted earlier today, please know that we are all very taken by what we saw today.  Thousands of years, incredible knowledge, artistic creativity and the hard work since 1897 that it has taken for this archaeological site to be unearthed leave us all four in awe!!!!!  Tomorrow is another early day as we leave on the bus for the Carribean coast heading to Taron and the second largest reef in the world, second only to Australia.  Keep in touch and lets continue to adventure.
