Off to Thailand

Hi All,

  We’re off to go cruising through the islands off Thailand and up to Phuket.   We will anchor every night and stay at each anchorage until we want to leave.  We’ve no schedule and no place to be at any time other than back here at Rebak around the 10th or so of March.    Randal’s niece Tammy is coming to visit and we’ll meet her in Singapore on March 17th.  We will leave our boat here at Rebak and we’ll fly to Singapore to meet her.  Then we’ll come back here, get the boat ready and spend two days cruising to George Town, Penang where Tammy will see the sights before flying home all too soon.

  But as for the present, it’s really the first time we’re just going out cruising around with no schedule.  I think that will be quite nice and very relaxing.  We actually do like anchoring out but we’ve always been on our way to someplace else.  Now we’re just going cruising….

  We won’t have a steady way to send email so I might not write again until we return.  I’m sure that I’ll have billions of pictures of everything odd that we ate.  Everyone likes those stories.  With no Satellite TV or much Internet access we’ll get lots of reading done and hopefully some painting and guitar playing.  Sounds good to me.  Maybe we’ll even catch some fish but NO FISHING NETS!!!

  Hopefully when we return here all of you will finally be seeing an end to winter, at least those of you in Virginia.  Our New England friends have a ways to go.  But Spring Training is about to start for the Red Sox.  I can’t believe that I won’t be able to follow it everyday while we’re cruising.   Oh well: it’s a long season.  Hopefully very long.
