Ok.  This is a test.  I've been mostly posting on Facebook, but this blog is supposed to "re-post", so I'm going to see if it works.  Then we might populate both sites with some pics.  We rented a van with 4 other cruisers and went on a sightseeing & snorkeling tour of Grand Cayman.  This was a dinner stop at a hotel on the Seven Mile beach. A lot of the fun of cruising is spending time with interesting people from other parts of the globe.

The first three days were very foggy.  The going was slow and you had to rely on your screen of instruments showing the chart, radar & GPS.  It was a bit like flying on instruments.

Checking in from the East Coast.  We managed to avoid Hurricane Maria & Tropical Storm Nate, as big blows at anchor.  We've been out of touch, but will try to post more often.  We have traveled about 700 miles south, through 8 states - continuing south to warmer water.
