I used to make little mermaid dolls to sell in a local boutique that eventually, sadly, sunk beneath the waves of change.<br /><br />Our mutual friend, Owen, seems preoccupied with mermaids/sirens. Perhaps you could pick him up as you sail past France, then sail south by New Zealand to gather my blog sister, the Sagittarian, on your way to visit me in Canada? Or maybe I should meet you in Romania so that we can set sail together back to Canada, picking up the rest of the crew en route?Lynne with an ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00320166770541319601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3691575624480469934.post-68998856431721644562010-10-17T12:03:51.962-03:002010-10-17T12:03:51.962-03:00Love the categories...

I can't even dream of embarking on one such adventure, even with a "just do it" mentality tucked in my bag with my passport. That's fantastic. I really admire your get up and go spirit. "Esperanza" is a prefect name for a boat. One should always set out with hope in one's heart, I think. It's the impetus to keep moving. <br /><br />I'm glad you cleared up the "qo" years ago.
