To Everyone from the Falkland Islands - you are forever friendly and helpful and kind at a time of need.

To Beth-Anne for your patience, your shoulder, your ear and words of calm and consistent wisdom. I am so grateful you are here.
The expedition will continue! Due to the time ticking, the summer ending, the weather windows closing -we have decided that Saturday is the deadline to find a suitable crew member. In the mean time I am starting to work on logistics for the possible attempt at circumnavigating the Falkland Islands to help Save the Albatross.

Hayley,
I am ever hopeful that whatever plan God has in mind for you will be the best. Wherever you go, however you get there, the albatross will be front and center in your heart and mind. I am sure, without any doubts that you are bringing the plight of the albatross to the world.
Love,
Kerry
fingers crossed that you get someone and can continue! All the best for Gregs speedy recovery. Paddling Falklands sounds like an amazing "concession" trip!

The rain beats hard on my deck as the outflow wind whips the sound into a furry....... as I paddled about Howe Sound today I thought of you. My canadian winter a kinder and friendiery version of your southern summer. Your vision and perseverence warms my heart and puts into perspective the billion dollars of olympic security that slides by my door. Fate always gives us what we need ...... strength and good luck Hayley.
Hayley, sorry to hear about Greg's medical issues, glad he is safely in Stanley. I am wishing for a captain for you so you can continue your adventure. Stay focused, strong, happy, peaceful, and courageous.
