Just pictures


Just going to post some photos that we haven't put up yet.  Hope you enjoy!
Today, we completed the Trent-Severn waterway, and are now in Belleville, Ontario.  Next step: crossing Lake Ontario (without a mast!).

We thought this island off of South Benjamin looked like a mad fish.

    I detect a fishing theme. One summer in MT, Rogge and I caught over 100 fish from Lake Inez in one week!

Changes, again. By Annie

Changes, again. We are seven months into one year of travelling.  Whew!  This has been a lot of travelling, although different from normal travel insofar as we travel with our house now, and don't have to pack for each new destination.  After sailing/moving nearly every day between June 2019, and November 2019, once we all made it to the Caribbean, we just wanted to stay in one place for awhile.  We spent about six weeks in Culebra, which we all regarded as our home away from home for that time.  This was interspersed with two one-week trips to St. John (including stops at St. Thomas on the way there and back each time).  This was followed by three weeks in Vieques.  During this time, we also had FOUR week-long visits from various family members - Rogge's mother, my sister and her family, Rogge's father and step-mom, and my mother.  Lots of fun to see family and catch up. As of last week, we are on the mainland of Puerto Rico, moving along the southern coast.  We are m

Sailing out of NYC, by Jack

Image
posted by Jack Yesterday we sailed out of New York City early in the morning.  It was a eight-hour sail. I pretty much slept through the whole thing except the first and last hours.  It was cool to see the statue of Liberty's front side from a distance.  When we finally finished the passage, we went to a stretch of a huge one hundred mile long beach that is the Jersey shore.  There were huge waves and huge clam shells.  Towards the end of our stay at the beach I saw a dorsal fin sticking up out of the water about 300 feet away.  I started to panic because I thought it was a shark.  When we were about half way in to the beach we looked back and saw four of them gliding out of the water and we realized that they were dolphins.  They continued to jump for a long time.  We don't have any pictures because they were too far away to really capture on camera.

The first two days, by Jack

Image
posted by Jack June 24:   It was the first official day of our endeavor.  We left Sturgeon Bay and headed for Green Island.  There is an abandoned light house on the island but when we got there the trail to it was overgrown and covered in poison ivy. Fox found a big fishing lure, and that’s when we started to get interested in fishing. We sailed to Peninsula state park and anchored for the night there. June 25: We all had a good first sleep on the boat (except for a minor drawback of a huge spider in my room). In the morning there were two more spiders, one big one in the bathroom and one in the parents’ room. We headed off for Washington Island, a four-and-a-half-hour sail.  To get there we needed to go through a passage called Port des Morts, French for Death’s Door. When we got there, we took a dinghy ride "from hell" over to Rock Island, a smaller island across from Washington. It was horrible because of the big waves and all the splashing. Rock Island was going
