I Look Well

Someone told me putting pen to paper, reliving the events of my journey would do me good.

Therapeutic they said?

What should have been a hop, skip and a jump from Grenada in the Caribbean to the UK in a forty foot sailing yacht? Became, depending on your point of view:

An epic fail?

Mis-adventure?

Adventure of a lifetime?

Experienced sailors may consider it the latter. Foolhardy that someone with such limited experience should have attempted it. Armchair adventures might shudder, congratulating themselves it wasnt them.

My hope is you, the reader whatever your disposition is:

Gasp at the terror.

Chuckle to yourself at the funny, sometimes ludicrous situations.

Feel anger and frustration from dealing with bureaucratic and corrupt officials.

Ultimately sighing with relief and satisifaction that I survived the reality, and you enjoyed taking part in reading about it.
