We're baaack.

The last of our scheduled company has departed for chillier climes, and we're walking around naked, tidying up, reading the newspapers and magazines they brought, and farting at will.

You CAN fit four people in a space meant for about 1.3 people, and the dynamics can be interesting. I'm hoping to publish guest blogs from Gord and Marj and Rich and Sheena in the next few days, and then you'll really find out what cruising on Nancy Dawson is like. Are we antisocial? Not the good cooks that we think we are? Sloppy and smelly? Gassy and boring? Erudite and entertaining? I'm waiting with as much anticipation as y'all are to find out what other people think of this travelling circus. All I can say is that we enjoyed some terrific meals aboard and ashore, some conversation that wasn't about boats, some terrific cribbage marathons, and a variety of splendid boat treats (we have a new bbq that actually lives up to its name thanks to Rich and Sheena).

We're still hanging out in St. Martin, in Marigot, and looking to head back to Antigua. We've confirmed that we have a spot reserved to haul the boat at Jolly Harbour, so we'll spend a few weeks sorting out the boat, buying plane tickets, and then we'll be HOME! (for a while)
