Hello!
♥
One of the big excursions during my days
on Nantucket will be taking a sailing cruise aboard
The Endeavor, a 31-foot replica Friendship sloop,
gives informative tours around the harbor and sound by
Captain James Genther who, with 25 years of experience,
aptly informs his passengers about Nantucket's maritime
history and various waterfront spots along the island.
I, for one, am incredibly excited to hop on board this
ship because, a.) I've never been on sailboat before and
have always dreamed to, and b.) what is a more beautiful
way to see the island of Nantucket than from the sea?
The only thing that may stop me from doing this is the weather,
but so far the forecast looks pretty good, so I'm crossing my fingers!
----------
3 more days!

What a wonderful way to see the Island! That's something I've never done either (a sharp reminder of my "washashore" status here)! ;)
ReplyDeleteI have never been on a sailboat before either..., and one day I will go on a little cruise like this -maybe I'd get sea sick! Got sea sick on the ferry ride to Block Island, there was fog though.
ReplyDeleteThat looks so AWESOME! Have fun! And tell us all about it when you get back. :)
ReplyDeleteWe went sailing a couple of years ago when we went to Camden Maine for a holiday-it was a real treat!
ReplyDeleteHope the weather holds for you.

Even the word Nantucket just sounds gorgeous. Have a fab trip.
ReplyDeleteThat boat looks awesome! I am sure that will be a relaxing trip. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteHi Erin! We did the same thing about 10 years ago off Martha's Vineyard, aboard the Shenandoah when staying with SB...it's really wonderful and should be a marvellously memorable part of your trip! We just got back from a week on a 4 masted Clipper sailing ship around the Mediterranean - I was a bit queasy at the start, but I found that if you stay up on deck (which I'm sure you'll do anyway - the views!) and breathe deeply, you'll be fine! Can't wait to hear all about it sweetie! xoxo Rachel
ReplyDeleteI wanna go too!
ReplyDeleteI love your descriptions of the plans you have for your Nantucket trip. It all sounds so wonderful!
ReplyDeleteWhere I live the Pineapple Ketch and the Eleanor Schooner offer similar cruises. I love to see them though have never been on one!
Enjoy your trip and am looking forward to hearing more about it when you return!
You've gotten me excited about your trip too. I'm certain that you'll use your camera well and let us all enjoy your adventure right along with you.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh how cool will this be?? Wish I could come with...but will enjoy it through your blog and photos... I can't wait either...
ReplyDeleteBlessings......

The weather will hold because you want to go aboard so much! Not to worry. Make sure someone takes pictures of you while sailing.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful trip can't wait to hear all about it.
