Anduril update Alice

I am leaning into the port side of the boat and using my abs muscles just to stay in position while I type.   I put the pre-cooked Moroccan Turkey Meatballs in the oven to eat and will soon prepare the couscous.   Yum!!!!
We just had our "Almost at San Fran Party" as opposed to the "Halfway Party".   We enjoyed a wee bit of scotch and a few beers and white wine.  We had great fun exchanging our half-way gifts.   Photos to be posted later....
It has been quite the journey and experience.  I will be so happy to arrive in San Fran, clear customs, and find a hotel, and dive into the shower.  We are all a bit stinky at this point but I might even be worse than all the guys on the boat.  With being sea sick for 3 days and the routine on the boat very busy with waves and good wind all the time, there was no good time for the basics of washing and changing clothes.  The boat has been rocking and rolling so doing anything below decks is difficult.  It is one hand for the boat and one hand to do whatever needs to be done.   We lunge and swing from hand-hold to hand-hold.  If you understand parrots, it is called parroting about the boat.

 I am still wearing the same clothes that I started out in in Victoria.   I haven't brushed my hair and think I have a good start on some dreadlocks.

We should be arriving in San Fran tomorrow morning and with a bit of luck we should be clearing customs, docking, and cleaning up.   Our plan is to get the boat to a yard for repairs on Mondayand arrange flights to join our families in Maui.
