Sally, McKenzie and of course Abby have arrived in Ontario and yesterday the big kids went out sailing with us. Unfortunately winds were light, I had really wanted to scare them but we didn't have the opportunity. Was a little dismaying that soon after we set off Sally's comment was “this is what you do every day?” translation: OMG this is so boring, I can't believe you think this is fun. I replied that once you mix in beverages, snacks and WIND it's a lot of fun. Fortunately (for us) the wind picked up a bit, beverages were served and it got to be more fun. They moved up onto the bow, lying under the jib sail and it actually got exciting when we unexpectedly heeled and they weren't hanging on. Hopefully next week we'll have more wind and give it another go – this time with Abby along as well.

| Note 2: thanks to Les & Chris we have a kayak at the trailer for the summer! |
