Happy Canada Day!
We’re celebrating the day with a short daysail around the bottom end of Moorea. Rolled in our usual country flag and sporting our extra large 6-foot flag for the occasion.

Hej Sharon. I hope you and Bill had a wonderful 🇨🇦 Day. We celebrated in a less overt way by a ferry trip from Stockholm to the medieval town of Visby on Gotland island. Looking forward to exploring it for the next few days!
Hope you had a great Canada Day!
