Travelling s/v Afrita: Arrival at Destination
9/10/2010
We went under the Golden Gate Bridge on Wednesday, Sept 1st It was monumental and awesome and we were so happy to see our destination The weather was superb and there was no other traffic Except on the radio we heard that someone had jumped.
Fortunately we didn't see it Anyway, now the adventure of finding jobs awaits us We were fortunate that friends of Leon from Coos Bay were alerted to our arrival and arranged for temporary mooring at their yacht club in Coos Bay.
Alan and Elizabeth are fantastic and embody the spirit of cruisers
