We’ve had a great deal of fun this past four month, collecting and sharing sailing and sailors’ stories from near and far, and we thank you all for your support and your involvement. Your calls, messages and comments are the wind in our sails, the rudder that steers our course … etc., etc. — trying not get too corny or gushy here.
Wherever you are, whomever you’re with, and especially if you are by yourself, we wish you all safe, fun, warm, and happy holidays, and a very Merry Christmas!
From Claudia and Jim (Fujiko at Biscayne Bay)
Hello Friends! Happy Christmas to you in Florida! thanks for sharing all the things you see, we love travel with you! Have fun and tell us, what did Jimmy cooked for Christmas? We are curious! XX 😘
Bonjour Marie-France, we had one of your favorite foods, fresh Florida corn-on-the-cob, cucumber salad with mango salsa, garlic bread and chicken parmesan. We ate too much because you and Denis weren’t here to dine with us. Merry Christmas and Happy and Healthy New Year!!!

Hi Sandy & Kelly, Merry Christmas and Safe Healthy Happy New Year!!! Enjoy your visit to DC 💕💋💕🎄🎄🎄
Merry Christmas Claudia and Jim
Though we are sad to not see you in person – we are so happy for both of you, that you are able to sail and have these adventures and experiences.
We have thoroughly enjoyed reading your blog and the detail you have provided, and have learned many facts from the posts! You have allowed us to feel like we are right there experiencing these things – even when we are over 1,000 miles apart.
You have lifted our spirits, made us laugh & smile – and even made us feel warm inside when here it is only 25 degrees!
Look forward to continue reading about your adventures- until we can see each other again in person 🏝️🎄

Hi Diane & Jack .. Thanks so much for your reply .. it takes a couple of hours daily to do the blogs .. I’m so glad you are traveling with us 💕💕💕 Merry Christmas and a Safe Healthy Happy New Year. 💕🎄💋🎁🌴. Love, Claudia & Jim
Looks nice and cozy and merry on board Fujiko. Only Claudia would think to bring along Christmas decorations. I swear there isn’t a vessel afloat, besides Noah’s Ark, that can carry more stuff!
Hope you guys have a very Merry and Warm Christmas.
Love Dennis, Sharon, Andrew and Eoghan!
Hi Dennis, you’re spot-on as usual about Claudia being a pack rat. Very funny on the Noah’s Ark comparison. Have a great and healthy holiday as well. Can’t wait to see you and Sharon again.
Merry Christmas to both of you as well.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you as well. Can’t wait to find out about your New travel plans for the upcoming new year.
Merry Christmas!
