Just to catch you up a bit on the last days of the passage (in case you’re not on FaceBook — DavidEllis Nagle Boat — where we’re able to post quick updates and photos more easily, but usually not in as much detail): (Continued…)

Design London part 1
Cheers,
After enduring a Philadelphia winter of really horrible weather including days with no power, the weather gods in England smiled down on my nephew Andrew during his visit to London. (He flies home tomorrow.) The weather was sunny and perfect. It will take me forever to write up all of our adventures, but here […]
Fortnum & Mason Department Store and "the Map that Changed the World."
Cheers,
I’m pooped! My nephew Andrew arrived on Friday and we’ve walked miles and miles since then. His interests are design, crafts, and architecture so we’ve looked at London a bit differently than we normally do. Just …

Alert Bay
24 Feb, Monday 1000 The wind increased and shifted overnight at our Alert Bay anchorage, making things uncomfortable and freaking Ol’ Rusty a bit. This morning it was clear the SE gale had shifted to NE arctic high outflow — which can create 50+ knot…
