Still in San Diego
04 October 2010
Hi everyone! I have finally set up a blog for our journey but I'm still trying to figure out how it works. I think this blog site will be lots of fun for everyone since you will be able to track our journey on the maps. You can even drill down on the Google earth map and see the marina we are staying in right now. After I get the hang of this blogging stuff, I will go back and post prior journals and we will put our previous locations on the maps. Please feel free to post comments also.
We have been here in San Diego over a month now and I am finally starting to feel familiar enough that I don't pinch myself each morning when I wake up to make sure I'm not dreaming. I wake up to palm trees and warm ocean breezes-----where are the Doug fir, the seals and the bald eagles? If this gives me culture shock I can't even imagine what Mexico will do to me later this month.
We have met some very nice people here (originally from Bainbridge Island no less!) and we have been able to spend time with the Canadian couple we met in Crescent City. As they are also headed to Mexico and beyond, I think we will continuously meet up with them in various locations. I am so glad. I think I will be making some lifetime friends on this journey.
Well, I had better post this as the blog site is telling me I'm running out of time. Will write more about our time here later.
