Different

May 15, 2010   

I have been on the water almost everyday here on my brothers new little run about which is great for the kids with high sides and all. The difference from the other four times I have been here is that I am not involved in running around for a race boat in fact I haven’t even been near the yacht club. Instead lots of quality time with the three kids at the beach, in the pool or at the museum, zoo or aquarium. As it is also May it is also not as hot as I am used to. Perfect weather for me to get rid of the white antarctic skin! Off to the UK on Monday to get ready for RBIR.

    Go to South Georgia. Stay as long as you can. You will never regret it! You have the rest of your life to sail. Antarctica is great but the magic of S Georgia is special- you need to spend time with the nesting albatross, climb the mountains, watch the elephant seal bulls fight- commune with Shakleton’s ghost- whatever. Just go!!

    Ash,

    Just got around to reading (and enjoyed) your SA post. Thanks for sharing! BTW… don’t think for a minute that you’ll be letting your friends down if you go back South. We want nothing but for you to be happy, so if that’s where it is for you, we’ll miss you, but support you all the way!

    Best,

    Adam
