Back on the seas, again

Welcome back to our journey on Nokomis, Paul and I are back on board. The view is of the olde custom house, across the marina from our dock. We are happy to be back, but also sad to be missing our family and friends. The next 18 months will be the final leg of our journey. This summer we will explore the islands of Scotland again, but come late summer we head south to France, Spain, Portugal, Canary Islands and Cape Verde. From there we will sail back across the pond to the Caribbean and then turn right to head north. We hope to be back to Lake Superior in October of 2015.
As our plane was landing in Chicago (connecting flight to London), I looked down at Lake Michigan and could see Larsen Marine in Waukegan, Illinois. This is where we bought our sailboat in 2001 and was the very beginning of our journeys on Nokomis. What a fitting way to start off this final leg!
