It's a big world out there
It looks as though it has been over a year since I read the story about Zac, a 16 year old boy about to take on the adventure of a life time in his 36 ft sailboat out of Marina Del Ray California. It made the news today that he has made the 27,500 mile trip around the globe and made it back safely. He did have a little run in with pirates off the coast of Indonesia, but thanks to the Australian coastal patrol, they show up and the pirates decided to split; however it sounds like there was a couple hours that things were a bit scary.

Way to go Zac, I admire you and I’m proud of you too. I just could not have come back.
