Another Big Birthday!


Today is a very special day we will celebrate for the 66th time!  It can be difficult when you are out cruising as you never know where you’ll be or who you might be with at any given time or special occasion.  It was nice to know we were among friends and had found a great little place to celebrate Walter’s Birthday in Carriacou.

Jack & Marce on Escape Velocity and Sara, Mark, Elizabeth, Michael & Beatrice on Field Trip all met up at The Lazy Turtle for pizza and some homemade cupcakes to help us celebrate Walter’s further steps toward old age!  After some drinks and pizza we sang “the birthday song” and toasted to Walter’s special day.

Elizabeth & Michael on Field Trip had created a beautiful hand painted card and wrote a very sweet poem for Walter.  Elizabeth stood up and read it out loud to us all and we thoroughly enjoyed the personal little details and the thoughtfulness that went into creating the card.

Walter, was so tickled he still has it in full view on the ledge by the settee onboard.  It is always the homemade gifts that really make us smile.   Thanks to all our “yachtie” friends for making it a very special birthday for Walter.
