The camera is a canon 1dsMkII. A note though--the pics came through a little desaturated as a result of iPhoto dropping the icc profile during the conversion to jpegs, which is one of those things that I used to be paid to take care of and of which now I feel little concern over. Next time I'll take the time to make them right . . . maybe! re: the hugs, will do. The camera is a canon 1dsMkII.

Hope all is well so far. I am extremely jealous of your traveling around the world. I am sure to you guys it might seem like the worst idea on certain days/times, but hopefully most of the time it is the best thing you have ever decided to do. I really wish i could meet up with you guys, but as you guys have warned us, it might be really hard to do that. So instead I would love to buy you both a drink (or a few as your journey continues) in Mexico. I have donated $20 for both of you to enjoy a few Mexican drinks. Please choose the drinks wisely (no worms in them) as I don’t want to be the cause for you missing a few days due to illness. My only request is to somehow make it in a Video blog…maybe with the drink of choice in your hand and the Mexican cheer “Salud!” Please continue to keep video blogging as I love to see the updates of how you guys are doing… I am going to Greece in May for a couple of weeks. I wish you guys were going to be there when I am there, but instead if you guys decide to go there and maybe we can compare some of the stories during your adventures or even provide suggestions… Note: I tried both links on this page "Buy us a Drink!" and they both reulted in a "Fatal Error" page. No worries, I was able to find the link again on Karen's site, but I don’t want you guys to lose some free drinks by this same issue for other willing contributors. Have a good day/night and stay safe! Your cousin, Kyle Hi Matt and Karen!!! Hope all is well so far. I am extremely jealous of your traveling around the world.

I'm also curious what camera you are using? I saw Karen's post on Io's blog - please give them a big hug from Livia & Carol if you see them. Thanks for the post on your heavy weather experience.

I'm sure you know the saying to the effect that "rough weather is 5kts more than the worst you have been in".... Good that you are now more confident in the boat and more importantly in the crew. I've heard many valiant owners ( and other solid offshore boats) say that the boat can usually take much more than the crew. Fair winds! Well done and well told.
