Grandma came to visit. She was with us for 10 days. During this 10 day period, I had to share a bunk with Meerkat (Mera). Let me tell you that was definitely NOT one of my favorite experiences. She felt the need to complain about everything, including the non-existent draft. However now that we are no longer living in each-other's pockets, we have resumed our "friendship". I still have the desire to dump water on her head but I am doing my best to refrain. Day before grandma left we pulled in to the Discovery Cove Marina where we interacted with human life forms. There was a Huge Canadian superstore (the Canadian equivalent of Wal-mart). We had lunch at an A&W, bought out the local chocolate store, and ate at the fanciest restaurant known to man. That was our second uber fancy meal. The first one was a gift from a friend of grandmas who insisted on treating us with a dinner at a 35$-40$ dollars a platter restaurant. So I ordered the prime rib special with yorkshire pudding, mashed potatoes and gravy and the best prime rib I've ever had. And as he said you can't have dinner without desert. So we ordered a Key Lime cheesecake and a Chocolate Explosion cheesecake. Thank you John.
Grandma left yesterday to Sacramento, and we did our long haul up to Port Neville which if I might add is as remote as remote can be. We broke a Don Quixote record that day. We traveled 50 some odd nautical miles that day. Motoring against the current halfway. We left at 7:00 and arrived in Port Neville by 5:00. I unfortunately got seasick on the way up and the whole trip was rather miserable. On a lighter note we had really nice weather the entire way up. Just alot of chop.
