April 1st was our original target leave date. We knew we weren’t going to make it a few months back, when we took longer than planned to get the house on the market. And now we are awaiting a buyer for our home. New target is mid May with June as an absolute if going this year.
It’s hard trying to be patient, knowing we will be in a panic packing once the offer comes in and it’s time to go. Meanwhile, we are still selling items online and reducing our stuff. Making decisions on what to bring from home. What needs to come immediately and what can wait until we are in the USA. No definitive plans to our route or places to go with the exception of a marina in July in order to do some work on her.
Attended the WOW (Women on Water) seminar in Victoria in March. Met a lot of women with similar interests, some who have sailed all over the world, others who are just starting out. It was a day of fun and laughter and I did have a successful docking experience on the docking simulator. You can view pictures of the event in the SNAP Victoria magazine.
