[status] Today will be our last full day here in Honolulu, where we have been guest since our arrival on June 6 of the very gracious Waikiki Yacht Club! We plan to head out tomorrow early am for Ko'Olina for fuel, then out the Kauai Channel for Washington. We have really enjoyed our stay here at WYC - wonderful restaurant and bar, lots of sailing and paddling programs for young and old, wonderful view of the Waikiki skyline (where there is a grand fireworks show every Friday night), and in the past week or so, lots of visiting yachts from both the Vic-Maui Race, and now the Pacific Cup - including Roy Disney's famed Pyewacket (he is a member of this Yacht Club). We have also done some of the tourist things here, like visiting the USS Arizona Memorial - very sobering! But, we are anxious to get sailing again, and to get back into our "home waters" of Puget Sound once again! Lots to do today, so we had better "turn to." All is busy and well aboard the SV Bright Angel today! Thanks for following us on YIT!

If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea.
