The Grander Scheme: s/v Northern Symphony
Another simple dream...Another crazy notion: To make a sequel to our Grand Scheme by making an extended great loop starting from our home in Nova Scotia. One boat, two so-called adults, one or two children, and one cat.

Last swim of the year!
31 December 2010 | Peck Lake, FL
Okay, now here's something you don't do in Nova Scotia on the last day of the year: Spend hours swimming in the ocean!
We took our dingy to shore and found that the chart was right: Barely a hundred meters across through the palm trees and over the dunes, the ocean waves were breaking. Here, for the first time on this cruise, the ocean has taken on the blues of the Caribbean, and I'm not talked about dejected pirates! Leslie and Evelyn spent hours frolicking in the water with a friendly coconut, Anne walked the beach, and I even got a nice nap in the sand. We eventually made our way back to the boat for an afternoon of reading, games, and dinner preparation...Not a bad way to end a very good year!
Best wishes to all for an even better year to come!
