Nikan's renovation is completed!
For the past two months I had been reminded of what I definitely do not miss from my working life, and that's an alarm clock, in my case J-P, who goes to bed and gets up with chickens! It's been quite hard to function in all the mess of renovation, and at the same time to have two more people around (in 33 ft boat), marine carpenter and his helper, who showed up at 8 a.m. exactly, 6 days a week (yes, people here work Saturday!), and took over the interior of Nikan, usually for the whole day. But now, all is done and we are very happy with the result. We are planning to be on our way by the 27th of December and will toast you all, hopefully from the calm sea, January 1st, 2011!
