Out to the Ocean...and Back To The City



Don't tell anyone but we did not have working navigation lights. We fixed this today and I am pleased to announce that Elise is as flashy as a Christmas Tree now.

Fiona asked many questions about right of way. We were on starboard tack and this huge ship didn't seem to be turning onto the usual channel for huge ships. First rule of the road: "if it's big, leave it alone."

The effect of "Calissons" on someone's mood are remarkable. Especially when it is combined with a tiny bit of salt and a lot of sun. Nat looks particularly happy on this picture...

If you don't know what a Calisson is, it's a 15th century candy from Aix-en-Provence. Ours were a bit more recent.
