Welcome to the Mediterranean!!!


We’re sailing through the Straight of Gibralter in a couple of hours.  I know…seems like a snore.  But when all you’ve seen for the past 7 days is Canada and a couple dinky islands in the middle of Nowhereville—it’s HUGE!  Plus the water is supposed to be calmer in the Mediterranean, which should make for slightly less vomiting. 

If they let us out of class (which they better or there will be a 700 person revolution) we’re gonna try to get some video.  We’ll post it if we can find free internet in Barcelona.

As of the noon report, we have traveled roughly 2300 miles since Halifax and have a wopping 450 miles to Barcelona.  Everyone is getting really anxious to get off the boat.  We’ve had another few dolphin sightings and some people “claim” to have seen whales…but at the exact time they saw them everyone else was conveniently away…hmmmmmm.  

We’ll try to write again before we get to Barcelona. 


Feeling a little ethnic…

    We spent the day on Vail Mountain, met a couple who told us Barcelona is REALLY COOL....

    Oh, those whales... kinda like that hole in one when the other three in the group were in the men's room... ahem...
