Filandia, nestled in Colombia's picturesque coffee region, is more than just coffee. We've uncovered a culinary secret here that made the trip absolutely worthwhile. La Lechona, a succulent roasted pig stuffed with rice, vegetables, herbs, and spices, is a traditional delight. But the real surprise? The empanadas de lechón-crispy, golden pockets filled with that delicious lechona. Pair them with lime and spicy chili sauce, and you have a bite of heaven!


Sailboat Repairs; U-Bolts Installed. As we near completion for our major sailboat repairs-our excitement mounts. These are the U-Bolts that we had specially machined, here in Anacortes to hold our mast. They extend through the chainplates to the interior of our Sceptre 41. We plan to be sailing in about two weeks towards B.C., where we will be spending 2-3 months doing our 'shakedown cruise', before heading south.
