One year ago today we were
married in Tortola, BVI. At times I
can’t believe it’s already been a year, and other times it seems so long
ago. We’ve had so many experiences in
the past year and as each day passes we come closer to realizing our dreams.
It was important to both of us
that our first anniversary be special.
When we got married we talked about going to Italy and Spain for this
anniversary. But with the purchase of
Volaré earlier this year, that was no longer a practical option. As it got closer we tossed around other ideas
– a weekend in San Diego, a weekend at the local Ritz Carlton, taking the boat
to Catalina or staying on the boat at the dock and continuing to work on the list. Working at the dock and heading to Catalina made the final cut. In the end, we decided that even though there are months of work to do, since we celebrated our honeymoon at sea, we should celebrate our first anniversary at sea.
Jason
went out fishing first thing in the morning to add to our celebratory feast.
He came back with a 14" Calico Bass, enough for a great afternoon
snack. Being a bit squeamish about the hunting/fishing thing, I couldn't
bring myself to take a picture of it so you'll just have to use your
imagination. I"m sure I'll get over it eventually, as we're figuring fresh
fish will be a great free staple.
It was the perfect first anniversary and we're looking forward to many more on the boat.
