Happy New Year, one and all! With fabulously warm weather forecast for the weekend, we headed up to Annapolis to join in their festivities. We had a great sail up and after a little help from the Harbormaster (mooring lines had been zip-tied for the winter!) we took over mooring ball #1 in an empty mooring field.

VERY relaxed as we head out of the marina. |

The Captain surrounded by full holiday decor. |

He got a turtle from the clown. |

She got a ladybug! |
As we headed into town, we welcomed our only neighbor for the night, the Lagoon 44 "Joy of Tahoe," by cutting their mooring line free, too. In town we enjoyed a drum and bugle corps, a clown, ice cream and coffee, a trip to a park that we somehow hadn't discovered before, and a magic show--it was great! After heading back to the boat, we were able to enjoy the bands all night. There were 2 fireworks shows--7:30 and midnight--and they were both great! We relaxed, reflected on all that 2011 brought us (hello, I'm home!), and pondered on what 2012 would bring.

We are ready for fireworks! |
The trip home was adventurous to say the least! We pounded in 3-4' seas and 20+ kts. Docking was even a bit of a challenge! We're home and it's time to relax and enjoy 2012!

A toast to the New Year (before the winds kicked up!). |
