We are still in Orange Beach, Alabama resting and catching up on boat maintenance and chores. I have laid out the route that we have traveled since leaving St. Petersberg, Florida in February of this year. Today is 9 months since we moved onboard Dream Fever and left to begin the adventure of traveling the Great Circle. When we return to St. Petersberg, we will have traveled over 5,243 miles by waterway and over 1,500 miles by auto. We have seen our country and Canada through a new perspective. We have actually seen country that few will have seen, I have taken over 3,000 pictures, only a fraction have been shown on this blog. We have experienced situations in which we have learned more about ourselves and exceeded unknown comfort zones, setting new tolerances of trust and dependence on each other and friends. This trip will expose one to situations that you wonder if you will survive and yet you come out with a few scrapes and bruises that give you new confidence to go boldly forward. This trip will bring out the Great, the good and the bad, but you realize that you will rejoice in them all. A trip everyone should experience, but few will.
