An adventure. A dream. A chance to go places. The tales of the Seahorse. Sailing.

Just shy of 10 years and Seahorse has returned to St John. US border is super chill and easy for citizens. We used the CBP AP. Seahorse and crew were approved, and we anchored and came into the office only to be told not needed....wow have times changed.

Some of today's high points.

Quiet before the north wind blows. Seahorse is motoring north in the Red Sea. We have a very narrow window to make it to our next anchorage. Marsa Alam Egypt. Making a batch of Lamb Keema Samosas. I found the Samosa leaves which makes it "easier".
Anchor down. Beers out.

Jeff is singing on the back of the boat. And we are about to enjoy Holi at the local Indian restaurant. Tomorrow we leave the Maldives for Djibouti. over 2000 miles - with little to no wind. It is going to be a long passage.
