Ah, Home at Last- Back in Annapolis

DSCN1049

There was a lot of excitement about getting back to a house.  This last month we had really been pushing ourselves with long days.  Laundry and other projects had been put aside.

We LOVED our trip but there were some things to be desired- showers, real bed where you can stretch your legs out, standing up straight inside, refrigeration/freezer, and knowing when it rains the bed will stay dry/and when there is a storm, waves will not roll you.  It’s not that many things, but we do miss them after 8 months of cruising and 11 months of living aboard Velocir.           

As a special treat, our family and friends gave us a welcome-home party!  So much delicious food and amazing to see everyone again.  It was a taco party, and we made white sangria like we’d had in St. Augustine.  There was also tons of ice cream and cake!!

  1. I loved your videos and trip blog. Someday we will do the same. I thought I would share one of our sailing videos with you since you have shared so much with us. I hope you like it.

    1. Thanks for sharing your great video! Nice looking boat and a good day out on the Lakes. We hope to cruise the Great Lakes next summer.

  2. lol, is the hatch closed! Congrats guys! What an amazing trip and a whole year of being hitched! So proud of you both!

  3. Thanks for your blog, I’ve enjoyed tagging along that way on your trip. I just got back to NC after my Bahamas trip aboard the 23′ Compac, Dixie’s Grace. We met in Ocracoke where you showed me around your boat. A son and a godson joined me at different times and we all had a wonderful time. Thanks too for the sail article, well done. Rob
