COMMENT: Beach House -EN ROUTE – St. Helena, Island to Ascension Island
The blog is updated and as soon as web guru Jeremiah figures out why the photos won\’t post, they too will be up.
We had a great time at St. Helena Island. The tour of the Napoleon sites, the hospitality of the warm people were all great.
We have lovely conditions and expect this to be the case all the way to Ascension Island. The journey is 700 miles, it will be our shortest of three jumps
across the Atlantic to the South American side. We expect the trip to take 4-5 days, the winds 12-20 knots and pretty much right behind us. The seas and swell shouldn\’t be uncomfortable…we\’re off this morning at 0900 (both local and GMT!).
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SKYE!!! (She\’s catching up to us!…:-))
KIT,
Scott and Nikki
