Returned Happily

Well we survived. No, not another storm or anything so exciting. Fynn and I survived both the 19 hour day to flight to Vancouver and the 12 hour day to get back. It was pretty intense…

Back in October I had to decide if I would be flying home for my 20 week ultrasound or have it done in Mexico. I felt like I wasn’t sure how to make that decision as I didn’t have a good idea of what cruising in Mexico would be like, or how accessible the health care system would be on the Baja. So I decided to fly home for the appointment and visit my midwifes as well. Of course I had to bring Fynn with me so that she could see her grandparents, which was lovely all around.  However, if I were to make the choice again I would have saved my money and had the ultrasound here, in La Paz. Regardless it was nice to see family and pick up some boat parts.  Hopefully now we will be able to run the generator, make water and pump the shit out of the holding tank. Glory days!

Anyways, as I was saying,visiting home was nice and we did some family traditional Christmas things that made we start to think I might miss Christmas after all, as we had no plans to celebrate the holiday on the boat. In fact I was almost sad that I had to leave the wintery scene.

But then we landed in lovely sunny Mexico, where is it most defiantly not raining, and most definitely not Christmas-y. So I was pretty excited to see Christmas lights on Asunto when Kolby dinghied us back home. That was perfect. Now that I am back I truly feel that my home will be where ever Asunto is.
