Well, 2012 is almost over now and we can look back on a frustrating time but now we are in place and the dream really does look like happening in 2013. The two month cruise to Gibraltar in 2011 was a huge success and persuaded us that we really did want to go long distance cruising. It was just a case of getting all the bits in place for it.
Of course, that took a good bit longer than either of us expected but all the bits are falling into place now and if all still goes to plan, we will cast off from Puerto Alcaidesa around the middle of April. Other posts earlier outline where we think we will go. We only have firm plans for the first six months with our trip out to the Azores and then back to France where we will make decisions about where to go from there.
One idea is that this time next year we will be drinking rum punch in Barbados or at least on approach to the Caribbean. On the other hand, we might be in Falmouth talking about how the gales this year are even stronger than last year. We shall see.
Anyway, Happy New Year to all the legions of avid readers!
