We’re ready to cross the Pacific… but we can’t leave.
Right now we’re stuck in Panama, anchored in a relentless rolly anchorage, waiting on one thing: the kids’ visas. It’s the final hurdle keeping us from pointing the bow west—and every day we sit here, the pressure builds.
But we’re not wasting t...

Before we could prope...
