Well, we have made it half way around the world !

We have now been living on board Blue Magic for 18 months and it is 12 months since we left Gibraltar for the start of the rally.

We have visited over 50 islands, crossed the equator 3 times, crossed the date line, we have visited 4 continents and crossed two oceans.

The temperatures have never dropped below 25 degrees and we haven’t yet got fed up with the sunshine !

Most important of all we have been lucky to have lots of visitors to share our big adventure, we have had 22 friends and family stay with us on board Blue Magic since leaving Gibraltar and a further 18 have come to see us and stayed ashore.

During the six months sailing to the med prior to the start of the rally we had another 31 visitors !

Keep on coming it has been fantastic to see you all !

Of course we have met lots of lovely friends on the rally too which has really made our trip.

Ahead of us we still have the delights of Indonesia, Borneo, Singapore,Thailand, Malasia, Sri Lanka, India, Oman, Egypt and Crete.
