goodbye $1.20 beer!

We left San Carlos, MX at 10:00AM Friday morning. We slogged all the way back to Seattle by Saturday night at midnight. Rolled out of the car, stumbled down the dock and fell face first into bed. Woke up 10 hours later to my sister knocking on the door.

The boat is still lying in San Carlos. The driver was sick so they couldn't ship until today. An email today let us know they will absolutely be shipping her tomorrow. This is "Mexico" time so we're not holding our breath. Maybe. Hopefully. Cross your fingers.

Still don't have an ETA when she'll show up in Seattle so I'll just keep my cardiologist on speed dial until she shows up in good condition.

So has a final name for the vessel been decided on? I see the name of the image includes the last front runner I had heard: hello world

Well...?

Or is it not good luck to name the boat before it actually gets out of Mexico?

Name has been decided, still going to be named 'Hello World'. However, we haven't gone through the proper ceremonies and traditions (read: drinking) to de-name and re-name her so until then we have to refer to her in ambiguous tones.
