Hi Y'All,

I got an email from the Libelliods this morning. Tomorrow, Baerbel and Gerhardt will be joining them on the boat for the crossing to southern Spain (Malaga). They plan to leave Milazzo (Sicily) as soon as weather permits after Baerbel and Gerhardt arrive. They will sail along the north coast of Sicily through the Thyrennian Med to the south coast of Spain. After Spain, they will proceed on through to Gilbralter and further to the Canary Islands. I believe they are planning an extended stay on the Canaries and will make the Atlantic crossing some time in early January. Can you believe they haven't been gone 4 months yet? Time really flies.

They sound fine and happy (as far as I can tell from the email anyway). I hope to hear from them by phone before they leave Sicily, but who knows.

Miscellanea:
For Barb Constanz: Jim and Rosi expect to hear from you very soon if you would still like to meet them in Spain or Gibralter for the leg to the Canaries.
They got the email messages from John and Rita and from Helen.

Hope the people in on the coast (Mariner's Cay, Mike&Ruth, John&Marcia and Gernot) made it through the hurricane without too much damage. We were thinking about you.

Alles Gouda,

Yvonne
