Landfall!


Mid-Atlantic. Zephyr and Looli under the Atlantic Ocean

OK, you're thinking that "Moon River" vanished in the Sargasso Sea. Or that I simply couldn't be bothered with blogging anymore. Or, perhaps, that I took to the rum.

None of this is true. Not quite.

We have crossed the Atlantic. We are in the Azores, soon leaving for Madeira. Even sooner -- within a day or two --there will be a series of posts.

So please stay tuned. Have faith. And pass the rum.


Mid-Atlantic, above water. All we have to do is hold on. "Moon River" takes care of it all.


And in the meantime, you can find out the French version (better food and better looking people) if you visit Adele's scribblings on: http://nautisme.lefigaro.fr/blogs/adele-smith-6.php

There'll also soon be some of my own stuff on the Agence France-Presse website: http://blogs.afp.com/correspondent/ and on http://www.sargassoalliance.org/, the website for the Sargasso Sea Alliance -- folks trying to save the "rainforest of the ocean."

  2. Sitting here in the Edinburg airport after dropping Isabelle off at St. Andrews and naturally thought of well, one of you. Fall is solidly in the air and despite the bracing cold the University Surfing Team was out in full force. Bizarre to see surfboards coming out of stationwagons as we walked by in overcoats.

    Think of you four often and trust the trip continues to bring the level of experience you seek, heck, that we all seek but not all of us have a Valiant. Be well, post more often, and good luck on the return leg. We'll have the rum chilled in the Carribean.
