Video blogginging is an exciting way to share your daily experiences with your family and friends. I have just started video blogging:.~

Hi Matt and Karen!!! 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

So I figure a couple dark ‘n stormies might be the perfect warm weather drink (of which I have had my share while sailing in the BVI) – though since I only kicked $10 I would recommend waiting to spend it it Mexico. I love your site and my wife and I have the same ambitions, eventually. We just bought an Alajuela 33 last year (also a 1978) and we are currently trapped in the Great Lakes (currently on the hard in Green Bay, WI) but not forever. Good luck to you both and fair winds. Keep posting the videos, I need to sail vicariously until the ice leaves.

If you can manage throw on a cheese head or a Vince Lombardi fedora for the drink photo, you will earn my undying respect. Prosit! Salut!

Also, I would guess you are on a budget, but if you want a great restaurant recommendation in San Diego, try Candelas http://www.candelas-sd.com/candelas_main2.html (spendy but great.)
