Helping out with Isabelle's school project and introducing 'Flat Stanley' to boating life.

January 25, 2015

     We are helping our granddaughter, Isabelle, with her school project. It is all about a character called 'Flat Stanley', who was flattened by a falling bulletin board!  The good thing about this gruesome accident is that now he can go all over the world in an envelope instead of a jet plane!  His job is to learn as much as he can about families and cultures around the world and to report back to his class.
He arrived in Florida a few days ago and is busy getting acclimatized and learning all about boating life. He hopes to come over to the Bahamas with us very soon.
     We are having fun and hoping to make our crossing to the Bahamas at the end of this week - 30 January - if the 'weather window' holds. Everything that was broken on the boat has been fixed....but as all boaters know, there is no guarantee attached to this statement! Wish us luck.
