It's officially CHRISTMAS aboard Due West!! Stereo speakers are finally hooked up and our fantastic collection of Rock-n-Roll Christmas music is blaring, BIG THANKS to el Capítan for that!!

Santa arrived early surrounded by gifts (practical boat things plus some new clothes, it's really amazing how quickly the sun and salt air demolish clothing down here!)

We even put out our Seattle Snow Globe (in honor of the fact that they're actually having a white Christmas at home this year!?!) But we decided not put out our little Christmas Palm Tree with lights and ornaments cuz Tosh & Tikka would have had waaaay too much fun with that!! (Amazingly they were napping when we put everything up and never even seemed to notice the bows and ribbons!?)

MERRY MERRY HAPPY HAPPY HOLIDAYS! PEACE ❤️ LOVE and geckos to ALL...

Wishing you all a happy healthy 2017!

Captain Kirk, Navi-Girl Heidi, Tosh, and Tikka


Thanks for reading our blog and keeping up with the Sailing Adventures of Tosh & Tikka!
