Oranjestad, Aruba, N12.31’ W70.02’
I arrived safely this afternoon after a very long travel day. The wind is blowing like crazy and the seas are big and rough. We will wait for a couple of days to see if things subside a little. No sense in feeling like a rubber duck in a washing machine. Mike & Judy have invited a fourth crew, a local guy, for this journey, who has done it several times. The coast of Colombia is notoriously rough, and it's a long passage (4 to 5 days).
Meanwhile, I'll have a couple of days to explore the island and get in a couple of runs. It was pouring rain when I left New York and I am glad to be in the warmth and humidity again.
