All Hands On Deck   Adventures on land and at sea

Just like that, Lee and I have left Pirat and are flying back to the real world – a non-floating world of regular life things and regular places, a world where the questions “Where are you from?” and “What is your address?” are a bit easier to answer. We won’t be defying classification as tourists or residents any more.

I think we are both ready to be back, at least for a while, at this stage in our lives. It was hard to leave the boat all naked and alone in the dirt. Pirat looked so out of place high and dry on a tropical island.

At the moment, I’m trying out the in-flight internet on our Delta red eye to LAX. When I eventually land in Seattle and recover from my travels I’ll get to work on a real post.

For now, I leave you with one of my favorite van-isms from St. Kitts.
The hood of the van is emblazoned with “BU$$INE$$” and above the windshield it says “You won’t find any ‘ting loose”. Curious, isn’t it?
