Day 7 Report 3

Wednesday, Day 7. (Lat 25* 00.425N/ Long 138* 44.506W….. put it into
your GPS Andrew) I'm fairly tired. Not used to stuff like this, but it's
really fun. It's been kind of cold because it has been really overcast
but today was HOT!!!!! At night we get glimpses of the moon from time to
time but mainly its covered up by the clouds. It's the same during the
day too, but that's more of a relief. Right before sunset is awesome,
the sun is hidden behind the clouds but there are small holes everywhere
and you see streams of light peek through and make circles on the water.
Right after the sun goes down there is pink everywhere witch is cool.
Surprisingly the food fills me up but that's because all of the dry
packaged food expands in your stomach when you drink water. All of the
homemade food is excellent!! (Thank you Nay) there isn't many marine
life around but we did see dolphins and a couple of what we thought to
be whales. Other than that not much around, but I didn't really expect
there to be. We find ways to stay entertained, like trying to give
nicknames to people. Everyone has one other than dad and Bobo… they are
really hard to give nicknames to. Its been fun so far and I still got a
couple days to go so Hawaii… here we come.

  2. How about Subby for Rob?

    Not sure if you guys have heard but the Ilikai is closing...tomorrow...no joke. Seriously. We've been scrambling and are figuring things out so don't worry. This was just decided today (by the Ilikai) and no one got a phone call! We found out on our own! Crazy I tell you.

    Anyway, hammocks for everyone! Kidding. We will keep you posted. It will all get worked out.

    XO, L

  3. Ted -

    As you explain the sights, I can only imagine the picture and glad you are able to see it first hand. Look up tonight and find the star that is shinning the brightest. Remember that's how we can see each other when you are away! I found mine tonight and I hope you find yours.

    I am missing you and know this sail with your dad and grandfather will be a memory you will never forget.

    Happy Sailing Ted - love mom
