Although still relatively young at age of 38- isssh ... I've decided
after 22 year of commercial/music industry of which 8 years have been
spent in LA, to take a 2-3 year sabbatical, to follow a once in a
lifetime dream... or maybe I'm still dreaming? this will be a voyage
to discover values of a different currency..
During my living dream....I'm planning on combining my passion of
turquoise diving, with an epic adventure to find pirates? Ummmm?
No... To sailing across the South Pacific to the tropical islands of
Bora Bora, Tahiti & Cook islands.....
So i'll be sailing out of Marina del Ray for the last time on November
the 10th.... I'm sharing this voyage with Veronica & Apple... & any "
friend" who receives this E-mail is more than welcome to join us...
on any part of the epic adventure that we're undertaking... or simply
meet us in some tropical heaven for a week or so..... your more than
welcome to have your own on suite state room... Simply as a guest of
mine... stop crying ahhhh ...thank-you......but I'm still here? ! ...
Firstly...... I must say.... that behind this petard of what might
appear a little gleefulness,.... Is a genuinely sad person, torn at
the thought of leaving so many nice friends.. different souls over
the many periods during my years in LA.. such original color in
humor... So firstly let me thank-you sooo many for sharing tears of
laughter & supporting me in harder times..
when you receive this e-mail... you definitely still in my heart....
soooo...THANK YOU SOO MUCH...XXXXX...
Soooo.... I'm in the middle of creating a Blog called "global
sailing".... so you'll be able to follow our journey round the world
& so we can stay in contact...
ROUTE: 10 Nov.. MARINA DEL RAY- STRAIGHT TO THE SEA OF CORTEZ & SUN,
whales, dolphins & bikinis... (via Carbo San Lucas) then from
Mexico- Costa Rica- Panama- ( Maybe Galapagos islands time
permitting) ....
Then in March.. the Trade winds carry us across the South Pacific to
the French Polynesian Islands..(via the marquesa Islands, where we
"English'' Imprisoned Napoleon .. . we're planning to spend 6 month
diving within the thousands of atolls around Tahiti, Bora Bora &
Tuamotu archipelago, than further to the Cook islands, Samoa, Tonga &
Fiji.... before crossing the equator into the North Pacific & the
Marshal islands & Micronesia.. that as far as i've planned.. .. maybe
Thailand.. even Europe..
Well... i was planning another Giant christening style party/ good
bye party... .. but i've been bogged down.. prepping the yacht... So i
was hoping we ALL could meet on friday Nov 7th to cuddle, smile, laugh
& cry... good bye.... maybe be you could help arrange a farewell drink
''meeting place" ..HELP!! eekk!! anyway... nice to "say hello" - "
wave goodbye"....
On a more serious note..... We Veronica & myself have joined
"OceansWatch"... A voluntary organization which offers humanitarian
aid & marine conservation, "although we take simple things like
reading glasses, fishing hooks, mosquito nets for granted,. these
simple offerings can literally be a life or death necessity for a
small local fisherman in remote coastal villages in Tonga who can't
see to bait his fishing nets..... So please bring a 1 pair of reading
glasses each.. to my fair-well party's, so we can do our little part
when we arrive in these remote islands..... & i can tell them about
you..
