What does an RV Couple do when England turns COLD โ“๐Ÿšโ›„๏ธโ“

Live in English Pubs!๐Ÿ˜‚……Or head for California? ๐Ÿ–. ย  We had been so blessed with beautiful crisp Fall weather….perfect, really! ย A lovely English lady told us to enjoy it because once it turns…..THATS IT! !!๐Ÿ˜ฑ.

And sure enough one morning we awoke to 39 degrees in Flybye and worse outside with the wind chill!โ›„๏ธ ย  We bundled up , still cold ….& realized as much as we wanted to stay …Winter was on! ย  So we tucked Flybye away in storage and on a very cold, rainy ย morning we left on a wing & a prayer! โœˆ๏ธ๐Ÿ™

And after an 11 hour flight & a 20 hour day we arrived at our sailboat home ( Ayer Bourne) & fell into bed, oblivious to everything!๐Ÿ˜œ. And we awoke the next morning to 71 degrees and this sunrise! What a difference a day makes!๐Ÿค—

As much as we loved our Flybye adventures in England, it was a lovely homecoming & nice to be back in Ayer Bourne for upcoming celebrations & holidays! We couldnโ€™t wait to take the boat out, so we hauled anchor with some steaming coffee & sailed out ! ย We both love the boat & life on it…Paul never stops smiling…..๐Ÿ˜€…..Really!

And we never get tired of sailing around the โ€œseal buoyโ€ and watching for ANY kind of sea life! ย We really love everything about life on the sailboat……. itโ€™s relaxing, peaceful, beautiful …and somehow nourishes our souls! ย Same with life in the van….more on that later!โ›ต๏ธ๐Ÿš

We really enjoy starting out our day with a walk so next on the agenda was a stroll around the harbor & stretching out those stiff airplane muscles! ย โ€œBig Birdโ€ was waiting for us in the slip… itโ€™s really fun to watch these birds fish! ย We will try to get a video of that for you! ย Sally was feeling very happy & WARM!!๐Ÿ˜‚

Next itโ€™s ย off to Dallas for a Family Reunion…our bags are packed and weโ€™re ready to go!โœˆ๏ธ ย Dallas weather was โ€œpool polar bearโ€ but we enjoyed the luxury of a hotel room with a Bathtub!!!โค๏ธ๐Ÿ›€ And thouroughly enjoyed family!

Back home again to sailboat life, beautiful sunsets and Thanksgiving!! ย So much to be thankful for this year! ย Especially our nomad adventures on the van & boat…. thanks so much for journeying along with us!

We will be back to our weekly or so posting, thank you for your patience! ย Itโ€™s beginning to look a lot like Christmas down here! ย We are getting some great photos so stay tuned! ย Till then, Happy Trails & God Bless!! ๐Ÿšโ›ต๏ธ๐Ÿ™
