It's been a little over a year since we returned from our special voyage around the world. We are all a year older and life w/ work and children grabs hold and demands your serious multi-tasking attention. Life is interesting, work at Lehrer & Madden is challenging in a difficult economy , FishAye is still a wonderful creative outlet. Did I mention my Gyotaku art will be available at Pottery Barn Kids starting this March. Look for it in the catalogs!Traci is doing very well. She enjoys her profession every day and is constantly working to learn more to be an even better practitioner.
Anna is enjoying 4th grade,the ipad and Swimming for the Belmont Aquatic Team .
Layne is enjoying 1st grade, soccer (Dad is assistant coach) and her Yoga/Art class
Declan is 3 1/2 sporting his third Mohawk...enough said.
All this leads to the exciting News that Traci again comes to our rescue , unplugging us from our day to day lives to head back to Sea aboard the MV Explorer !!!
This is a three week voyage beginning May 21st- June 15th we set sail in Puntareanus , Costa Rica. We head from there to Peru in S.America then through the Panama Canal. Once we reach the Caribbean side we will dock in Panama, Costa Rica, Honduras, Belize, Mexico or possibly Cuba (w/ visa approval) the debark in Florida. Seven International destinations!
We will keep you posted as we learn more . We are excited for travelling again closely as a family and are happy to share stories and pictures along the way :)

ReplyDeleteHi, Traci! My friend & coworker's daughter will be on that boat, her name is Tyler O'Brien, so you will already know someone when you get aboard! - Donna Wren
ReplyDeleteHi there!! I have been reading your blog about your voyage in Fall 2010. I am sailing in Fall 2012 as ADOS with my family including 3 kids. I would love to chat about your experiences and gather any advice you have!! I have a 5 year old and twin 2 yr olds. Reading your blogs has really made me more confident in doing this with kids! My email is clpaul@callutheran.edu and I would be so thrilled if either one of you would be willing to share your tips on traveling with kids!! Thank you!!! Christine
