NEARLY READY TO GO

1ST APRIL - Only another couple of days to go - photos of our fuel bladder from Aussie company Turtlepac on the foredeck - 750 lt of diesel + 400 lt in boats tanks . Looks good and expect it go really well.


UPDATE: 25.3.08 - We are planning to leave on the 5th April - we will probably go down to Ensenada Mexico first - just 60nm south - to buy of all things UHT milk - cannot buy it in the USA. !!!!



We are progressing along with departure - our freight from Australia arrived finally - all in good order.


Me, Julie, is recovering from a broken bone in my hand - fell over in the boat - at the dock!!!!


The weather in San Diego has been very cold as well as some lovely warm spring days.
Our mode of transport is bicycle - two fold up bikes for the trip - we have now been lent a 30 yr old manual geared diesel Mercedes which we lurch around San Diego in to the supermarket etc. Great fun and good to have. - David loves it.
There are a few photos of the Marina - Kona Kai - lots and lots of boats.
A few of San Diego and the aircraft carrier the Midway.
