The Boats Arrive

Chris has been following the Volvo Ocean Race since before the race even started. The finish line for the last leg of the race was in the Chesapeake Bay somewhere and the Sailboats will start the next leg in Annapolis. It's all very exciting, Chris has a pretty good knowledge of the boats, their teams and everything that's been going on since the race around the world all started. Of course we are routing for the American ship "Pirates of the Caribbean," Disney sponsored if you hadn't already drawn that conclusion. No Johnny Depp is not one of the crew members ... thank goodness. We were lucky enough to see the second place boat pulling into town (Movistar - Spanish boat) while we were crossing over the Bay Bridge on the way back from Jersey a couple weeks ago. It doesn't seem like a very big deal from the pictures, but these boats really tower any other boat on the water, very awe inspiring. Here you can see the Sandy Point Light in the background along with the sailboat Movistar. I just love the picture of Chris and Austin, I'm so lucky to have such handsome guys. Austin's really begun to look much more like dad these days.
