We sailed into the St. Raphael resort marina, where we will spend the next 6 weeks before we turn around and sail west. We are 70 miles west from Lebanon and Tel Aviv, Israel. We are about 90 miles north of Cairo, Egypt. Unfortunately world events (Somalia) preclude us from sailing south through the Suez Canal and Red Sea to complete Jungle's circumnavigation to New Zealand and ours to the Marshall Islands and Hawaii. We will enjoy our time here with Demetris and his family before our journey back in 2012. More to come from Cyprus. Yassou.
There is nothing as beautiful as a sunset at sea - almost nothing.
We also had memorable sunsets and calm evenings.
The old wishful saying for sailors is "may you have fair winds and following seas". That is exactly what we had on our trip.
We are enroute to Cyprus and the south coast town of Lemesos (Limassol). We look forward to meeting up with my good friend Demetris Theoharous. I knew Demetris from his days in Austin, Texas when we would ride Harleys together. For now we have three nights of travel ahead of us. The weather looks favorable for the 385 mile sail.
