mission

The first mission is to sail.

The second is to reach the Med this Fall where we will spend the Winter, probably in Seville or Barcelona, or Palma, Spain, or Tunisia could be interesting too ….

The third mission is to reach Greece and Turkey and swim in those clear blue waters before every breakfast, Summer 2006.

The fourth mission is to cross the Atlantic in November to reach the Caribbean for the winter. We haven’t decided if we are making that passage in November 2006 or 2007.
We need to find our rhythm first; see how fast we go, how quickly we tire of taramasalata and sadziki and start craving island punches and coconuts and SCUBA diving in Belize.

After the Caribbean and words of scary hurricanes start to be whispered on the lips of the locals, we’ll either go North along the Eastern seaboard of North America to spend the Summer in Maine, one of our favorite sailing places, or we’ll go South along South America, or we’ll go through the Panama Canal and head for British Columbia, or Hawaii, or, or, or, well, as you see our mission is to be decided later on exactly where we are heading. We are sure that things will be clearer as we go along. Maybe we are all too aware that we’ll be different people after living on Lily for a year and then another, and missions might just seem silly in the end anyway!
