Island Conquering Update

As some of you may know, s/v Palarran is in a very serious and very intense challenge with s/v Bella Star. Here is some catch-up if you don’t know what I’m talking about…friends of ours, Aaron & Nicole on their Hans Christian 33 Bella Star, left to go cruising in 2011. They did the same thing we are doing and spent the summer circumnavigating Van Isle. During their trip they foolishly boasted about how many islands they were conquering and set a goal to bag 100 islands by the end of the summer. Long story short…they bragged a little too much and we decided to meet their challenge and up them by an island or two. Some predefined rules were involved….the “island” had to be visible at max high tide and contain a wee bit o’ vegitation. So it is now June 13th and we have been conquering islands for a little over a month. Here are some highlights….

Bella Star style was simply to have Nicole stand on the island and raise her arms over her head (we honestly don’t know if they even were on different islands cause they are notorious cheaters). So of course Palarran upped the anti a little by using a book with numbers and the name of the island…making one up if there isn’t a name.

    I new thought about but Bella Star could be cheating. Nicole just changing a shirt now and then. I think we might need a independent authority investigate and verify their claim. Looking at a map, I can’t even count 100 Islands on their route. ;-)

    Our count starts in two weeks. Tracker is in the mail.

    Fair winds.

    It ain’t over yet but you guys are making some impressive gains. Tawn, the island needs to have leafy vegetation, like grass or a little tree perhaps. Those gross little things that grow under water and pop when you step on them don’t count. You guys better keep up the pace – your number to beat is 128! Maybe you can find some real islands, and not so many nameless little frozen rocks to scurry around on. Perhaps there should be a quality angle to this whole thing, rather than just quantity. While you conquered 3 square feet of dry rock we did Tahiti. I think you’re going to enjoy doing some conquering down here! We miss you guys, and wish we could conquer some islands together!

    I tend not to leave many responses, however i did a few searching and wound up here %BLOG_TITLE%. And I do have 2 questions for you if it’s allright. Is it simply me or does it look as if like a few of the comments look like they are left by brain dead folks? :-P And, if you are posting at additional online sites, I’d lie to keep up with everything new you have to post. Could you make a list of the complete urls of your shared sites like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?

    Hmm it appears like your site ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I had written and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog. I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to everything. Do you have any tips and hints for inexperienced blog writers? I’d genuinely appreciate it.

      What a joy to find such clear thnnikig. Thanks for posting!

    • I have discovered that smart real estate agents everywhere you go are starting to warm up to FSBO Marketing and advertising. They are knowing that it’s not only placing a sign post in the front property. It’s really about building relationships with these suppliers who at some time will become customers. So, when you give your time and energy to serving these sellers go it alone : the “Law connected with Reciprocity” kicks in. Great blog post.

    • Can someone please tell me what the Candlelight Ceremony is. I love Disneyland during the holidays and as an Annual Passholder plan on going multiple times. I would like to be able to attend one or more of these as well. Thank you.
