OK here is a quick up to date update

we are on a great little beach , just north of the bay of islands. we are having a great trip, yesterday was a rest day, today was a 10knm paddle in strong winds and big swell, a good challenge. lots of fun and variety to the trip so far, but moving slower than had been hoped.

we are good and loving the food, though having electronics issues with email updates, spot messenger and solar chargers. all goof though and we keep trucking. weather looks better for tomorrow.

blog updates will hopefully catch up to the present as connection speed allows.
