Change in the Weather

Happy New Year everyone!

I am afraid this is mostly rambling about boat restoration.

Jigen san puts amazing eye splices into my future halyards.
Kiyuna san mixes epoxy. He has a brand new U.S. military coat and boots. Xmas present from the Pentagon

Slather
No better masthead anywhere!
I start attaching halyards and shrouds. This is terrifying work as the risk of quantum entanglement is very high.

We have a picnic on the boat. I go down fairly early to take off the cover and generally clean up. It is the most beautiful morning, bright sunshine and warm, thus picnic perfect.

By lunchtime the clouds gathered. Nonetheless we have a wonderful time.

Ichiro san and Tomomi san came back for Germany yesterday
We toast with plastic cups of delicious octopus coctel
After octopus, we devour cheese and terrines. Not very Japanese.

Lots of fun. photo Tomomi

Suddenly the weather gets much worse! High wind and driving rain. We scuttle into the cabin and keep eating.

It is wild outside!
Ichiro san gives a hand painted new year card. Yay! Year of the Dragon.
