A nice picture of the beach at Nice France.  The next day Lynne and I flew with our friends Emmanuelle and Jean Michael to Sardinia where we joined Doron and Sandra and their friends Issable and Mark for a 7 day sail in the North of Sardinia and southern Corsica on a 41 ft Lagoon catamaran. We had great weather, sun the entire time, great food and even better company.

May 31, - June 1, 2013

Track of our weekend sail.

Hung out at Clipper cove with 8 other boats and met one of the editors for Lattitude 38, LaDonna, and got our picture in the electronic version of the magazine.

June 1, 2013

The next day we were reading after breakfast and two people from a raft of boats next to us (Ladonna and Rob) came over in their dingy and gave us a copy of Latitude 38 and invited us over to their boat. Turns out Ladonna is an editor for Latitude 38! They had a fairly large raft of boats attached to their boat, by the time we left there were 8 sailboats rafted up to Ladonna & Rob's boat.

We ended up hanging out with them all day. At about 5 we departed for home. Unfortunately there was no wind so we had to motor home.
