The Journey Continues

Sea Child has now covered a distance of over 800 miles on her first leg of our world cruise.  She is now in San Juan, Puerto Rico, awaiting our return.  We have sailed her from Chagauramas, Trinidad through the Southern Caribbean north, via Grenada, St. Vincent, St. Lucia, Martinique, Dominica, Guadaloupe, Antigua, St. Maarten, BVI's, and USVI.  We now have 9 weeks total sailing time.  

Our preparations for the next leg include research & acquisition of an Iridium phone, Weatherfax, and hopefully some type of air conditioning system.  Travel guides have been studied for areas of Venezuela, Bonnaire, and Panama.  We may include a stop into Columbia; we're not sure just yet.  

We land in San Juan on March 11, 2009.  Our journey continues.
