The French did explore Vietnam, and that turned out well.

Hope all goes well getting the A/C working as much as needed. That would be a must! Enjoy Jamaica and your rest.

No one has been confined to the “Brig” yet, but the kids will go there if they get too uppity!

And yes, the nanometer/nautical mile thing is unfortunate. If the French had been decent explorers, this whole thing wouldn’t have happened…

1. Did I see that you have an inflatable raft named “Brig”? Has anyone been confined to The Brig yet?

2. I cannot read nm as anything other than nanometers. And, no 700 nm is not impressive, as it is the size of a large molecule.
