Hola!
Your adventure sounds incredible. This is one trip (as you know) that I am glad I was not on... ewwww... scorpions, centipedes!!!
I can hardly kill the small ones I have in my basement from time to time!
I am so happy for you, that this trek turned out to be such an adventure!

Good for you, Di, horseback riding for so many days!!
Cuba looks like a great horse.

Keep well.. until next time...
¡Ser feliz y sano!

QuickStar's journey

Captain Peter Bruckmann and First Mate Diana Young (also often acting as the Admiral) set sail from Vancouver in August 2007 aboard sv Quickstar, a 46-foot Beneteau. Each year we have ventured further across the Pacific, while returning to Silver Star Mountain, in Vernon, B.C., Canada for the ski season (and to reconnect with family and land-based friends). This blog explores the highs, lows and adventures of life at sea and the wonderful countries visited.
Thanks for coming along for the ride.

A doctor examining a woman who had been rushed to the Emergency Room, took
the husband aside, and said, 'I don't like the looks of your wife at all.'
'Me neither doc,' said the husband.
'But she's a great cook and really good with the kids.'

As for worrying about what other people might think - forget it. They aren't concerned about you. They're too busy worrying about what you and other people think of them."

Why sharks swim around you!

Two great white sharks, swimming in the ocean, spied a ship in distress.

"Follow me, son," the father shark said to the son shark and they swam to the ship. "First we swim around them a few times with just the tip of our fins showing."

And they did. "Well done, son! Now we swim around them a few times with all of our fins showing." And they did.

"Now we eat everybody." And they did. When they were both gorged, the son asked, "Dad, why didn't we just eat them all at first? Why did we swim around and
around them?"

His wise father replied, "Because they taste better without all that shit inside them!"
