CROSSED THE LINE OF MERIDIAN

CROSSED THE LINE OF MERIDIAN

We are now in Western Waters..... and hopefully back into AIS Range in the next couple of days!

SLOW BOAT FROM CHINA.......

Making prgress, albeit way to slow for me.  I am learning patience.  Good news is I had to zoom all the way out on the map to see where it was today, I'm hopeful that soon we will be in view of the America's (on the map that is) in the next ccouple of days..

OPEN SEA -

Left Yokohama yesterday and is now in open sea.  Out of AIS range with no way to track real time progress.  The schedule and track has estimated today's position.

Yokohama harbor

We are ~ 8 hours away from Yokohama harbor.  Cosco New York is the one with the red square around it.

"DOT WATCHING"

As Laurie has so appropriately named it... we spend our day watching a dot move across the screen, trying to figure out if our boat is on the boat or not.... are the satellite images real time or not.... I think I can see our boat on the boat, it's right there.... You get the picture, productivity has dropped to near 0 in the Browne household.  Dennis put it well last night, the last time we were this excite, anxious, nervous was when we were 8 1/2 months pregnant with Jess.  Now our baby girl will finally have the sister she has always wanted.  I hope that they get along with each other (LOL).

Anyway,  I think that we have convinced ourselves that Gypsy Soul is being loaded today. Cosco New York is at dock in Ningbo, which is where the manufacturer is.

The Final Build Pix

We received the final build pictures yesterday.

  The next time we see her will be in Savanah early February (I hope).  We are still scheduled for the Jan 10 cargo ship - but it will be touch and go and could get bumped due to the rush to get ahead of the Chinese New Year.  Keeping everything "crossed".

Wishing everyone a safe, happy and healthy New Years!

The Final Build Pix

It's January 10th

Yes, even in China it's now January 10th.
