We just returned from a cruise that started in Rome, toured the Greek Islands, Turkey, Croatia and ended up in Venice. What a way to spend our 33rd wedding anniversary and Dave's birthday (the day after our anniversary--I wanted to be sure he didn't forget!).

Today our engine overheated while we are out motoring in the Santa Barbara Channel and then while we were docking Gwen fell overboard!

We discuss Gwen's upcoming colonoscopy and other "stuff". Enjoy!

We discuss our recent trip to Vietnam and Thailand and the Japan earthquake.

We talk about our experience with podcasts and our joy in listening to our stories from years past. We also talk about current events in Egypt as well as the recent piracy where two couples were killed on their sailboat as they traveled around the world. Our Oscar predictions are shared!

We share our thoughts about the upcoming year!

We spent the day on our boat in Santa Barbara and listened to the rain. We talk about a myriad of issues including the fact that Dave's folks would have been 100 this week if they were still alive. We also talk about holidays as they are always fun to talk about!

We talk about our recent trip to London and Africa (safari).

We were able to sit outside on the balcony of our hotel room that overlooked a natural watering hole. Earlier in the day there were water buffalo, gazelles, warthogs and many birds. The night sounds were incredible. Be sure to listen toward the end of the clip as it has some very interesting sounds. Makes you wonder what was outside!
