Get that bag of peanuts!


We are on our way to the Northern Hemisphere! We left Tahiti 3 days ago sporting our baguette spare tires around the mid riff and already remembering French Polynesia as a dream. We are slowly gaining our sea legs, but the going is rough. We have become accustomed to the serene island life and with it, a very slow lazy pace.

The wind has been strong and steady which is great, but the waves- oh the waves! The sea it hitting us from all directions and constantly flooding the cockpit after slapping us in the face. I literally had to dive for a bag of peanuts that was floating away as the sea was exiting. Paprika flavored peanuts- I love those! Luckily, we haven't lost anything yet, and all the peanuts are dry and accounted for.

The good news: we have already gone 300 miles. The other news: we have 2,200 to go.
