Fogo Island, Finally
We got out of Lumsden at last during a rare dead calm, and it was strange to motor gently between reefs that had been vicious, ship-killing breakers just a couple days before.

In this traveling life, I’m always a visitor, wherever I am. I’m transient, not of the place I was, the place I am, or the place I’m going.
When living on a boat, function must always take precedence over form, so the phrase “interior decorating” is laughable.
How does school happen in this cruising lifestyle? The truth: it doesn’t.
We’ve been to hundreds of harbors in our cruising lives, but this was hands-down the prettiest place we’ve ever been.
While he might not have figured out the meaning of the Newfoundland harbor’s name, Ben Zartman he did have ample opportunity to ponder life’s greatest treasures.
While the Clarke family aboard Osprey were cruising Bermuda, they made a side trip to the headquarters Maritime Operations Centre.
Since leaving Victoria two months ago, we’ve been overwhelmed by all we’ve seen and experienced. Now that we’ve reached our northern-most point at 59 degrees latitude, we’re going to head south, back to Mexico.
It may be that we never make it this far east again, but it’s a rare treat to have done so, and the easternmost city in North America is a fine place to have been.
Word seems to spead quickly in these parts, and every few minutes someone else would be brought in to see the people with three little girls off the sailboat everyone had seen anchored out.
But unassuming Auke Bay is a jumping off point for Glacier Bay National Park, which is why some of the largest privately-owned yachts are here.
It’s 8:00 am and already the heat is emanating around us like a fog.
