Sailing around the Caribbean

In 2007 our family sailed from the Chesapeake Bay to the Caribbean, visiting most of the islands and stopping in Cartagena, Colombia for hurricane season. We just returned to the Chesapeake after visiting many Central American countries and islands.

Union Island: Celebrating Daniel�s 12th Birthday

03 April 2008 | In Kikuyu's Main Cabin
Once anchored, we turned our attention to getting ready to celebrate Daniel's 12th birthday. We have done little shopping in the islands save for food and boat-related stuff so Daniel's birthday was to be nearly devoid of presents. We managed to get him a T-shirt of St. Vincent and a card with EZ dollars (Eastern Caribbean Islands' currency). He has grown and matured enough to like these presents despite that none were a game or a movie. We also made him a cake - first cake on Kikuyu - and made his favorite dinner of macaroni and cheese. We enjoyed the evening looking at pictures of his years growing up. For the first time we noticed he was happy to see all the pictures and patient and curious about them.
