some pictures from my time on zephyr over the last few months:
the beauty of cocos.
24?! that's like a real person age. good thing i live in never never land.
my friends paul and sima from boston pose in front of zephyr on the docks in darwin.

ok, I give up...WHAT'S in the box?
ReplyDeleteAnd having seen Zephyr moored for the 1st time,
ReplyDeleteis she a typical 'round the world' size boat?
Aunt Cath
it's a birthday cake, cath. chocolate with strawberries.

LOL! Bill, I thought it was either Mark's catch of the day, or something sent from Hannibel Lechter! Thanks for the clarification--so that's what the maximize icon is for! ;-)
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving Mark! Will you have Emu with stuffing and kiwi sauce? :-)
Aunty Cath
yeah, correct, a chocolate cake with strawberries. i had cake for breakfast, lunch, and dinner on my birthday. and cath, as far as the boat size i would say we are perhaps a little small for a typical around the world boat (36 feet). most that i've come across are in the 40-50 foot range. although i have definitely seen some boats smaller than zephyr and with more people on board (parents with 2 or 3 kids, for example). errol is already saying he'll have a bigger boat for the second go-round. although this one is special because he built zephyr with his own two hands...
ReplyDeleteand yes, happy thanksgiving to you too. i have no idea what i'll have. perhaps i'll make a curry as we pull out of mauritius (we might leave on thursday).
Looks very much like the decorated birthday cake I mailed to Andrew in Iraq!! Belated Happy Birthday, Mark, and almost Happy Thanksgiving.
