[00:00] Thank you.
[00:30] I'm going to get a little bit closer.
[00:43] I'm going to get a little bit closer.
[01:00] Okay, we're off to go rent our first boat because we're not allowed to drive through docking with Uncle Ray's boat yet because it's not that he doesn't trust us, it's just that he doesn't trust us.
[01:30] Huh Thank you
[01:52] We just have launched this great little cafe called Stam's. It's a stale right up here. And now we're going to try and see if we can squeeze by this other boat.
[02:07] It's our first time anchoring. We let the anchor down. We bring it up to do it again. We caught a buoy. And you don't know. That's not good.
[02:19] Okay, so now they're up at the front of the boat working, trying to get the anchor out some more. I've got the grill going right there, we're hurting for asparagus, after this perfect
[02:31] steak, and let's go to the gate. Daniel, how's the outcome going? It's good. You got it? Oh, thank you. I thought you showed me.
[02:49] Thank you We going to be four of our family venture
[03:14] It's the bed I lost behind the marina right here. So let's just go right behind the Oracle Stadium right there. And, uh, yeah, this is good. Now we just have to do, we're setting practice and we're going to go anchor at Eagle Island.
[03:44] huh
[04:14] Hello This is Agent Ireland we on board up here and we going to we going to say wake up I guess it's a great season today up here.
[04:28] So we're going to be sailing in, practicing overboard drills, we're practicing tagging and driving and everything else. All kinds of territory, so we're going to be jumping up and down. That's the launch of the break.
[04:40] Oh, you can roll it off in a perfect way. I know in my heart you think I'm white and dirty. I'm just too white and dirty. I'm just too white and dirty. I'm just too white and dirty.
[04:52] Oh, that's good. This sailing trip was really fun because it was actually a chance to do something that I probably couldn't justify in other ways. You know, there's things that are on your bucket list for a long time.
[05:06] And learning to sail was certainly one of those things for me. and I did something I would have made time for it normally. This trip is significant for me because it actually took time to work from all of that and said, no, let me fail.
[05:18] It's something that I've wanted to do for a long time. It's an opportunity to do it. It's going to take, you know, six days to go and do this. I'm far from work. I totally get away. And just learn new skills.
[05:30] And I say it's just that thing that you've been wanting to do. You've been putting off of it. It's going to take a lot of time or, you know, hard to make time for or hard to make happen, then actually go and do it.
