Our Feet On Flores

Day before landfall 
We made it!  We had to motor the last 130 miles but we are on a dock in the unfinished marina (so no charge) and getting ready to use our legs again.  The island is beautiful and I can't wait to walk the hills and towns.

Thanks to all our blog watchers for your good wishes and comments.

More later,
Branko

Glad to hear it! How long will you stay there, and how long is the next 'hop'?

Thank God!! I was worried you'd get scurvy. I hope you find your land legs. (After a week on your boat, it took me 1 1/2 days to walk normally).
So happy you made it safely. Xo

Mom is glad that you are safe. Hoping to see you. Let me know as soon as possible where would be the best for me to meet up with you. Love and Hugs, Mom and Taz

Yay! Congrats on a safe journey and thanks for sharing with us... felt like we were right there with you. Tricksie thinks you should treat Sophie to some fresh fish after enduring that long torturous fish famine at sea.

Such good news! Batman was getting worried (especially after reading about those "foaming seas").
