… is now reality! Although, it still feels like a dream I am becoming more and more aware of the reality that I’m actually doing this! Leaving BC, Canada, felt like a trial run and just a plan, nothing else! Arriving to Ensenada, Mexico felt like a holiday. Now, after 24 days away from land, sailing day out and day in feels like a ”task”, a fairly large task, but it is starting to feel bigger than a vacation. Looking at these enormous cumulus nimbus clouds beside me with the moon highlighting them, I feel very small and powerless. It feels like when you’re checking out a big gap jump, studying its’ surrounding and visualizing your bike and you flying off it! The difference is that I can’t get away from this situation. There is no ride around! Just keep going and wait for the cloud to catch up to you and do what it’s gonna do! Perhaps that was a bad analogy, but that’s what came to mind! Anyway, in 380 NMiles I will be seeing land and I anticipate feeling emotional and pretty damn proud! We are in the creme’ ala creme’ trade-winds and the next three days look absolute amazing for blowing right into an anchorage! I’m sure there will be surprises (and learning). There always are!
