There...JuWell we can see Grenada and guess what???? There is a black cloud over it! Too funny. Well we had lots of wind all night and of course what would an overnight sail be without a rainstorm or two! The kids slept until 1:30 and woke up like it was Christmas, all excited and smiling. I was on watch and Graham was sleeping. They came up on deck and joined me. They watched Reba and Planet Earth and I told them to keep watch for any lights ahead and I closed my eyes for a snooze. Rain came at about 3:30<br />so they both went back to bed and Graham got up. I was a little worried that it might develop into a squall so we furled in the head sail for awhile. I went to bed and Graham got the wet watch. He never complains though. All happy when I woke up, laughing about the black cloud over Grenada. So now it is 6am, kids are still asleep. Rain is picking up. Sky looks a bit scary. We have about 4 more hours to go.

Very big and winds of 20knots or above. It was a little unsettling to be totally honest. Right now the winds have died down a bit because St Vincent is sheltering us. Graham has been great. Very calm. We have been making great speed. We are running the motor right now to charge our batteries. We are hoping for a good night. I just hope the kids go to sleep and let Graham and I deal with whatever and then they wake up to the sunrise and happy faces! We are posting our position reports every so often.

Then I read on and I guess I got scared as well.<br />But your right plans do change and they can change daily. You have to do what feels right to all of you at the time.You really did have so many hurdles at the beginning of your trip its good that you could start to just enjoy life and the experience. Cant wait for your next blogg let us know when you arrive after your 24 hr sail. We will all be waiting.Tresenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949050668005979541.post-73820892988192228372009-04-15T10:01:00.000-07:002009-04-15T10:01:00.000-07:00Are you going to come to Alberta for a visit?
