Sailing with kids /
Happy mother's day !


 
Elif, Chris and me

We first sailed with Chris in Turkey and my girls, aged 4 and 6 years at that time, loved being on the boat !
Chris Duffin was very good as our first skipper, who introduced me to sailing.
Despite the challenges we had during the first days ! and me feeling sea sick at times, he managed to give the joy of sailing to us.
So, Thank You Chris !

Feel the wind !

So good to feel the wind again !
Feel the wind !
Today, we had our first sail of the season.
 1st of May, 2011 and the weather is lovely in Stromness, bright sunshine , light wind, beautiful spring smell in the air.  Sean asked if I would like to go for a day sail ! What a wonderful idea !  “Yes, of course” .
So, we cleared the cockpit ( that included removing our old fridge,  all the tools and stuff from the boat into marina trolley on the pontoon ) , and got ready to sail after  a cup of tea.

We all had a very nice sailing day !
