Leaving Cape Town
09 January 2015 | Cape Town, South Africa
Russ and Laurie
We're sad to be leaving Cape Town tomorrow, as we've had many wonderful adventures and met great people all across this beautiful and scenic country. We're especially grateful to the Paarman extended family for looking after us so much in all corners of South Africa, we really feel part of their family and also to Len and Jen in Richard's Bay! We would love to return the favor in the US for any of them when they may travel to our side of the world! We have new sails on NEXUS, and many improvements and maintenance done on her, and we're ready for our next leg! We have new crew members; Michael and Dawn Roberts from VIVO, which is currently awaiting their return in Australia, and Eric who joins us from the former crew of Dingy, so we have a full house of 6 for our South Atlantic adventures! So its off to St Helena tomorrow, which we anticipate will take 9 days, then after a 72 hour stop, we're off to Brazil.
