Splash!
Quick post to say that – the boat is in the water! It was a long day and we had to wait till the end of the day for our turn with the Lift and Travel.
It is a different feeling being on the water already. We were rocked to sleep and the wind is slightly stronger and more cooling right on the dock. Plus we see water through our escape hatches. The little kids have new risks – no more ladders to fall down, but now there is water to fall in. Simon and Norah have to wear a lifevest whenever they are out on deck, especially if we are not around. But there is also super easy access to the cooling water.
Today we will start up the toilets and refridgerators so we will feel like a more functional boat. The trips to the marine washrooms in the middle of the night are a pain in the butt!

What an exciting day for all of you! Every day a new milestone, but this is the biggest so far. I love the thought of being rocked to sleep & can hardly wait to experience it for myself.
