A surprise visit by all five siblings to celebrate the family matriarch's 90th birthday. After much planning - it was truly a surprise! There was much family bonding and it was incredibly hard to say goodbye after two weeks of fun and joy.
Since the engine repair and floor reconstruction project precluded our timely departure to Florida and make the scheduled flights to Australia in time, we were forced to leave the boat in CT and fly directly to Florida to connect with our Australian flights. Now we have to hope for a December weather window.... or wait until next Spring.
