Sunset at Lund Harbour, B.C., Canada.

Far From the Maddening Wind

What a difference compared to the blustery Caribbean.

Sunset across the Bahama Banks.

All Work and No Play

Dreaming about cruising?  Read on.

Oh yes,

we saw sunsets 

and palm trees

and drank pitchers of punch.

BUT

It was not always so easy —

There was cleaning…

and fishing

and washing

and barbecuing.

All very hard work.

As was the passage planning  

and 

checking

the weather,

not to mention 

the hours the Skipper spent

taking a very close look at the charts.

I could hear the ‘hsssss’ as the sun slipped into the sea … or …

had someone just opened a beer!

A red sky at night is a sailor’s delight.
