Our favourite quote is, not surprisingly, from Benjamin on how he gained offshore experience before we left: "I didn't get any. Babies don't get that".
What makes it even more fun of course is that it is written by friends of ours. We crossed paths with the author Livia and her husband Carol before we set out and then again in New Zealand and Fiji. Carol and I also worked together at 443 (Maritime Helicopter) Squadron when we were both in the RCAF and we did some coastal cruising together in BC. They have even continued to coach us remotely on kite boarding.
Great interview! I really enjoyed reading it.
ReplyDeleteSo very glad to see yet another family just go, and not let the "family" part of the equation prevent the dream from becoming reality.
Right now it's me, my wife and our six year old. We're planning another child soon then really doing what's necessary to moving forward with full time liveaboard cruising with our family.
