Revi on the Hard

It's hard to imagine that 5 months has gone by so quickly!  It's even harder to imagine that we have traveled 5756 KM in 463 hours under way.  If you do the math it works out to 12 KM/H - not exactly a blistering pace by any means!

However, the good side of spending time going slow is that you really do get to take time to see what's going on around you.  You get to see places and meet people you would not have otherwise had a chance.  Little communities in out-of-the way places.  Friendly people living lives whatever way they can.  Everyone has a story and is living life differently according to their means and circumstances. 

As we reflect back, we can think of so many little vignettes, each a reflection of the people and towns they live in .  Perhaps we can share a few of them a little later once the best ones have had a chance to percolate to the top.

In the mean time, we have put Revi up on the hard, and have prepared her for long term storage until we get another chance to enjoy a vacation cruise.  It was quite a process to get her ready for storage, but we finally got to the bottom of all the little things we wanted to do over the last 4 days and she's now looking good and running in peak form.

We have arrived home to Ottawa and are looking forward to meeting up with friends and family again.  I have said many times that a boat is a list.  Well, so is a house.  We have a few things to take care of over the next couple of weeks before we return to work - and we're looking forward to having the time to do that too!

So for now our adventure has come to a successful conclusion. 

• Sue and I got enjoyed each others company and love each other dearly
• No one got hurt
• We have memories that will last a lifetime
• We have gained a new perspective on life and the value of enjoying it

Cheers!


All in all - a great success!

Still a little more to come!
