50:45N 01:31W

We have now arrived in Lymington, where we started from in 2007.

We were greeted by Alex, the guy who sold us the boat.

This adventure is now complete and we are going to enjoy life on land for a few years.

This has been an adventure, not a holiday and we have had some great times but also some difficult times.

Yes we are pleased to have done it…. (bound to be a question.)

So bye for now…..
