At Sea to Ft. Lauderdale


We've calculated that this journey consisted of 7,260 miles sailed and 5,862 miles flown. The last two days are being spent at sea. We're currently about 50 miles from Cuba and the weather is getting cooler (mid-70s) and windier as we travel north.

All indications are that we're going to be in for a big change in weather when we get home. It'll begin to feel a lot like Christmas! Tomorrow morning, we'll leave the ship around 7 a.m., our flight to Muscle Shoals is at 10 a.m. We should be getting home around 2:30 p.m.!

Overall, its been a wonderful trip! Taking the laptop with us enabled us to stay in touch, organize our photos and videos into a slideshow, and post to our blog before we forgot everything we did. The only news we heard while we were gone were the many troubles of Tiger Woods! Surely, there is something else going on in the world. We'll have 28 newspapers to read when we get home, so we'll soon find out!
