This Blog is our mother's logs from her sails aboard Jofian. Our mother, Clare Holt, wrote a log every day and after her first sail to Mexico, she bought a laptop to write and save her logs. She sailed when the World Wide Web was first created, there was not as much on the Internet back then, no Wi-Fi, Internet access was very limited. I know if she were sailing today that she would be putting her logs in a Blog, so I am doing it for her. Mom’s logs to Alaska are on saillogsalaska.blogspot.com.

Wednesday, May 17, 1995 - Aruba
Looked rainy again this morning, but it only sprinkled. Roy worked on the problem with the electricity to the microwave, and I used the computer. I've discovered that all I have to do to boot it when it hangs up is press the ESCape key; I don't have to slap it at all.
After lunch, Roy paddled to the beach and walked around. He walked to the airport and almost to Hooiberg and into town and back. He figured he walked at least 6 or 7 miles. Farthest he's walked in a long time.
While Roy was gone, a small Canadian sloop came in with a young couple on it. They anchored not far from us.
