Kauhale Kai has now spent over 4 years traveling the world . This year we passed 50,000 ocean miles, a distance of almost twice around the center of the earth! She has offered us a million small moments of adventure, laughter, excitement and satisfaction.

Each person who has spent time with us aboard has been a big part of that experience. I once said, "If I ever make it big I'm going to buy a big boat and invite all my friends to come and play with me." Well, play we have. Thank you....all of you who have been a part of this experience. The journey continues!!

Delphi: The Center of the Ancient World

Delphi:
In the 6th century BC, this place was considered the center of the earth; the place where Zeus' eagles met after flying around the world. It was the setting for the original athletic competitions within the large stadium, it contains an amphitheatre, and also the famous oracle. There were buildings from every region of the world where its citizens would come and leave offerings after getting the advice they had come so far in search of. We toured the museum and the grounds and decided we should race accross the ancient stadium. We weren't exactly prepared for a serious race (notice the lack of shoes on my feet), but it was fun none the less.
