Next week -- next trip


A weather window of opportunity is on the horizon. We are leaving for the Mississippi and Alabama Gulf Coast next week. Mike is busy with batteries and rewiring. I am getting together provisions and other below-deck goods.

We got excellent advice from sailors (Terry, Mike, Capt. Mike from Sea Knots, and others from Cruisers' Forum) for places to include in our itinerary. Anchorages, places to eat, and marinas. Of course, there was plenty of valuable info about what to avoid, as well. We were sorry not to get to many spots last time. (See why -- March Trip posting).

So, this time we hope to be able to include:
  • barrier islands off Mississippi Coast (Cat, Ship, Horn and/or Petit Bois islands)

  • Dauphin Is. and Dog River in Alabama
We expect to make the Perdido Bay area for the (third) following trip.

Will be in touch as often as possible throughout! And, oh yes, there will be pictures, too!


Hasta luego...arrivederci....

And don't forget to look at other pics on Picasa Web Albums (see link below)
