Diary for Jason and Fiona - Trenelly


Circumnavigation-tastic!

2013-07-29

Well, we finally made it back to Plymouth. As my sister said 'It's not exactly round the world in 80 days'!

However, we managed to fit in a brain tumour, 2 Atlantic crossings, 2 Panama Canal transits, a baby en route to New Zealand and even, finally, got to the Scilly Isles!!

Our final passage we took on extra Granny and Grandma crew to help us around from the river Yealm and John gamely waved the Cornish flag off the Breakwater to mark our triumphant return.

BBC Spotlight did try to contact us, but Jason had lost his phone and didn't find it until a week later, by which time we were, quite literally, old news!!

How did we manage to get ourselves around without more mishaps!!?

 

Upon telling Dylan he had sailed around the world and that Molly had sailed half way round.

 

Molly ; "I want to go ALL the way around the world"

Dylan ; "I'm not going round the world AGAIN!"
