I Don't like oysters so I would not bring them.

Jess when you become old enough to add a glass of red wine to the feast ....you will be in heaven. P.S. You are a true inspiration. HAVE FUN.

Yum!!!!!!

Jessica,
Another ocean crossed and cape passed, congratulations. Liked the pic the other day of you taking it easy, seemed like all hair and legs (not hairy legs mind you, although in the Southern Ocean who cares?)

The Indian Ocean can be a very vicious place as Dame Ellen MacArthur notes in a book of her's I'm now reading entitled Race Against Time in which she gives a daily account in her '04 attempt at setting the fastest solo, non-stop circumnavigation in a 60' trimaran built for her.
So keep vigilant and take good care of EPL.

Fair winds....You can do it!

Surely you mean that you passed 'Above' Cape Agulhas. When we visited Aus. the world maps showed Australia at the top ;-)

I know I will catch some grief for this but....Oysters are not food! Smoked or otherwise. Bravest person in history was the first one who pried one open and said "Hey, I bet you 5 bucks I can eat that" Tee Hee. Brian C.

I have just finished The Graped Of Wrath, so perhaps it's apt to call you the Preacher. I have grown with your comments. You are eloquent and your faith is comforting, and it will be that warm strong arm that will surprise and guide a stranger in any time of need. And you will make that stranger feel so damn grateful, and humbled that love has arrived from nowhere to pick them up. The world needs more people like you. Run for office. David
