So we plan to leave London on Saturday 5th June, well ahead of our original August date. As it happened several things conspired in our favour which has made this possible. Our initial plan is to head down the Thames to Queensborough & onto Dover, Brighton before spending some time in the Solent having our first real shake down as getting used to cruising as a family. We then hope to then head on down the south coast with a view to either jumping off from Dartmouth or Falmouth for the north coast of Portugal. 

The last few weeks have been hectic to say the least. Trying to get all the last minute things we need as well as saying many good byes has been exhausting both physically & emotionally. But having completed a full engine service today, the remaining boat jobs can now wait & be done as we make our way. Now we will enjoy our last Greenland dock BBQ tomorrow night before saying aurevoir London.....

Rolfie!!! Its been 10 years and 1 month since my first day at BNP Paribas. On that very first day I met you and realised that we both had a passion for sailing and adventure.
How wonderful to see that in these ten years you have met and married such a wonderful person. Nicky and you have 2 gorgeous babies, a dream yacht and have brought your dreams to realilty.

Treasure every day of this amazing journey. I can't wait to read your updates.

Bon voyage!
