Valiam goes cruising: Back on land @ Sail Blogs

It feels strange to be sitting at my desk in our house after nearly 3 years. It is still a luxury to have unlimited hot showers, a washing machine, dishwasher, coffee machine, big TV, and constant internet. After spending a week making the house 'homey' after it has been rented by young people while we were gone I finally swam in the ocean enjoying the 2 minute walk to get there! The ocean is still calling strongly and one of the first things I did was plasted a huge map of the world on our living room wall with our circumnavigation route marked. Every time I see a map of the world I think of ourselves being blown around the globe on our small wooden boat. It still feels unreal. I experience unexpected tears as I packed up my things when we left Valiam. Bill and I reassure each other that we will be cruising again soon!! In the meantime we will get our house renovations underway to gain maximum rental for when we cruise again. Direct Link
