We left San Francisco on February 10, 2010 with a plan to head south to Mexico and then make the innocently named "puddle jump" to the South Pacific (!!) this spring. From there, who knows?!?!?!? Maybe Fiji? Australia? New Zealand? For now, we're just thrilled to finally be out at sea! 
Musket Cove has long been a cruiser’s haven in Fiji. Located on Manolo Island, MC offers a fairly calm mooring field, laundry, hot showers, a mini-market, bars, restaurants, and access to a resort pool. No trip to Fiji would be complete without some sort of resort relaxation, so we hung out at MC for a […]

A HUGE *HUGE* thank you to Karl P., Matt’s friend and former jefe, and Philip R., of the adventurous side of my family, for ensuring that we will not thirst on our way across the Pacific, or while we’re in French Polynesia, or probably for even months beyond that!!! We’ll be thinking of you and […]
