WHILE TIME IS SLOWLY FLEETING

 
This is a short video about the Pacific passage from Ensenada, MX to Hawaii in November, 2011 with five crew.  It's set to the beautiful song by Anael.  To see the lyrics of her song, and read the journal entries from that trip, please go to #61 While Time Is Slowly Fleeting.  R
 
 

2010 Photo Album

 
Here are some of our favorite photos of 2010.  No story, just pictures.  These and hundreds more images will be etched in our minds forever as we recall our first few months of life aboard.  Most were taken with a Canon 7D using a variety of lenses, however a few were taken with a Canon SD780 compact.

As always it's best to view these in full screen.

PHOTOS OF ELIANA

These were taken by photographer Stephen Cridland who has graciously allowed us to display them on our website.  They are shown here only in low resolution and are not available for download or for commercial use.

Many of these were taken off Laguna Beach.  I recommend clicking the FULL SCREEN button and step through using the arrows.  I have placed brief captions with each photo.

Thanks,
Rick
