The Start Of A Family

The past few weeks have been quite a whirlwind.  Having left Makai in Portugal, Amanda and I flew to England and zipped around by train through rolling green hills, quaint villages, and the hustle-and-bustle of London.  We then crossed the English Channel by ferry, viewed Paris from the Eiffel Tower, and explored vineyards across the French countryside.

 Now in Germany, we've slowed the pace.  Autumn leaves pepper dense forest with vibrant yellows and reds.  Plump Apples weigh down tree limbs and horses roam pastures along flowing streams.  While every locale has its downsides, life here seems idyllic.

 It is the perfect place, in the company of wonderful friends, to learn that Amanda and I are starting a new journey--parenthood!

We're both very excited.  Our plans are to return to Hawaii (by plane) later this month.  While sailing is going on break, the adventure of life continues.  And so too shall the blog.

 As always, more to come!
