As of today, we will not have our phones that we’ve had for over 10 years. We are dissconnecting our service and will only be reachable by the occasion email and satellite phone text. Don’t worry there are ways to contact us in case of an emergency, but otherwise we will finally be dissconnecting from the everyday rat race. 

We will still be able to post to the blog and Facebook , but again, this will be much more limited. We will most likely do our detailed posts when we arrive in large ports with WiFi. While we are underway, the posts will be much more simplified. 

Here are some photos from our last few days in San Diego. I want to say a special thanks to our new found and old boat friends that spent time with us in SD! SV 4th World, SV Lightspeed, SV Nomi, SV Orca and many others, including Captain Heather Richard for visiting us. 

    
    
    
 

We first sailed in to Mission Bay late  in the evening. We were able to squeeze more than 72 hours out of the anchorage.  We spent time at the beach, bbq’d with SV Nomi on the grass, and walked to the Baja Ha Ha party. Richard Spindler, of Latitude38 and the Baja Ha Ha crew, invited us to join even though we weren’t doing the Ha Ha. Thanks Richard!  While we were at the party, we ended up adopting a new “family member”, Emma. Now we have 6 on our boat. Emma will probably join us through to Mexico’s main land. 

 
   

  
We sailed/motored over to San Diego the day the Baja Ha Ha left. We timed it just right so that we were entering the bay as they were coming out. It was so much fun to see our new boat friends leaving ! 
We stayed at Silver Gate Yacht Club for 3 nights using our Nawiliwili YC reciprocal. Oh ya, living the life of fancy yachties. Haha.  We spent most of the time at the pool and hot tub when we were doing boat projects and important paperwork.

Thanks SV Nomi for all the pool party and bbq fun!
