This is a blog for followers of John & Beth Shaw as they attempted to sail a 34' 1995 Gemini 3400 from Savannah, GA to the Bahama's, the Caribbean, and other exotic locations. Sailing concluded in 2011 after an extended trip to Mexico and back. Now the blog is for our adventures "at home" until we set out again in our RV. The blog is linked from bethandjohn.com

Sunday
Sunday was a nice relaxing day, just like its supposed to be. We heard from Brenda and Leon and their trip back was safe and they are back in Ellijay. There isn't anything we can do on Mahalo Nui until we hear from the insurance company, tomorrow, Tuesday, or in a week. The little projects on Second Chance are minor tasks so no real hurry to complete those. On the dock is a couple from Australia who recently purchased their boat in Punta Gorda, FL and are in the year long process of sailing it to Australia. It is not a trip I would envy but they seem well prepared and have a good boat for the trip. He is having problems with his autopilot so J and I have added our 2 cents worth which hasn't helped the issue but we all traded stories. I took a ride into town and picked up some groceries to make chicken tetrazzini for dinner. I spent a good part of the afternoon cooking and everyone seemed to enjoy it as it disappeared quickly. We all relaxed with one of the new DVD's that Brenda brought us and did alot of nothing.
