Con has gone off to purchase heavy chain so we can secure Big Sky to the marina's concrete wall where we'll leave her tied up while we enjoy our family in Canada for a few months. It was a tough decision whether to lift her out or leave her in the Monastir marina, but ultimately, we believed she'd be safer right where she is.

Nine months ago, Brit and Kris had our first grand baby boy, Nolan, and just a few months later, Nick and Dan had our second grand baby boy, Dex. In six months, Courtney and Mike give birth to our third grandchild and first grand daughter! See the ultrasound photo in our recent news section. It's amazing!

Tunisia is our 19th country since starting our adventure 19 months ago out of Turku, Finland.
