We were excited to look online and find a Sunday service. This tiny branch in Split is filled with the most amazing collection of people. One worked as a translator for the church in Salt Lake City, another lost her home in Ukraine when it was hit by a bomb, two of them relocated to …
Ahhhh. Here’s to laundry days that don’t suck. Back on land, I raised four kids and had two washing machines in my laundry room. Laundry day was always a bear. Washing, sorting, folding, organizing–I often referred to myself as a “Laundry Goddess”, but really I was more like a domestic incarceration survivor. Now, …
Our last night with our oldest daughter Cheyenne and Clark before they headed back home was dreamy…and not because they were leaving. A meal out, a colorful sunset in Trogir, and a whole lotta mischief!
We had a blast with our kids while they crewed aboard. No matter how old they get, they’re still kids doing kids stuff…and we loved every minute they were here! But next time, they better bring our grandkids. PEEPING CLARK This guy loved getting on the paddle board and hanging out in …
Just before Chey and Clark headed home, we raised the sails one more time and turned off the engines. There’s a sound that’s hard to describe, when suddenly the clamor of motors hush and the faint sound of wind and arching canvas builds and amplifies. Imperceptibly, the sound of water lapping at your boat joins …
The pop of a Pringles can has led our oldest daughter down the rabbit hole into a pernicious addiction. Once she discovered their Paprika flavored crisps her brain turned into orange dust and has become preoccupied with the procurement of Pringles. And if she finds a can anywhere, she will dispose ALL of them from …
It’s always a blast to play games at night out on Bedouin’s cockpit. It’s even more fun to play with our kid’s spouses who had their own way of playing the same games growing up with their families. It always seems the rules we followed were different–apparently, we may not have been good at reading …
Since we’re working our way to the Split airport so our oldest kids can catch a new flight on another airline, we decided to scoot around Vis—a spectacularly laid back Croatian island. Our scooters were called “Typhoons” but someone at the moped factory got a little over-zealous on model naming day. As we sadly …
…And they’rrrrre back! What happens when your kid’s airline goes on strike and they get stranded?? You get ready to have them come back to the boat, hang the welcome back banner up again, and then give them their crew jobs back. The next closest flight on a non-striking airline is seven …
We were stoked to find a great parking spot when we pulled in to the town of Korčula, but then we got out and TRIED to read the parking sign–no comprendo. So we pulled out our handy dandy phones and did a little google photo translate. The fact that it could translate the sign was …
