The Adventure Begins - Day 1

Off to a not so running start! Oh well, that is the life – no deadlines or stress and I/we are already loving it. So we sit in beautiful, sunny Sausalito for another day while our fearless Captain figures out a solution to a non operating Auto Pilot. We will be on our way soon enough.


The first night on the boat was great. I stowed our gear as we (sort of) watched the Presidential Election. It was really difficult to fit our once “land life” items into just a couple of bags, and I can already tell you, we brought too much! One must be uber cleaver at space organization, or just really space efficient! I’m learning.


Wednesday evening we were treated by our “boat neighbor” we had just met, to a very nice dinner at Poggio’s under the Casa Madrona Hotel. Our neighbor David will be traveling to Mexico as well, on a huge 94’, 85 year old schooner he just purchased with his wife. They will be joined by their 4 cats and promise I can play with them all I want! That’s kitty heaven to me – meow.


Well, here’s our new home for the next couple of weeks or so. Enjoy the pictures!
