We moved from Shelter Island to the Quivera Basin in Mission Bay today. We are 7 miles closer to Newport Beach and the final stop of this cruise. Baby steps or lets play this out as long as we possibly can...I am not sure which is correct. Anyways, we are scheduled to arrive in Newport Beach on Saturday, January 26th. We are planning to stop in Dana Point Friday to pick up a couple of friends before making the last 13 miles to Newport Beach. Friends and family are planning to meet us on the dock in Newport Beach Saturday just after sunset as we arrive. Mother Nature has also decided to throw us a party: high winds, heavy rains, fog, lightning, and cold are forecasted right up to the end. If she wanted to tone down the dramatics, we would not be dissappointed.
