Après les déboires qu'il a connus il y a quelques jours, Tanguy de Lamotte s'attaque aux réparations. A première vue, il y a du boulot pour le skipper d'Initiatives-coeur.

Tanguy de Lamotte est heureux. Le skipper d'Initiatives-coeur navigue actuellement dans des conditions magnifiques et a en plus le plaisir d'annoncer l'opération d'un huitième enfant grâce aux clics sur la page Initiatives-coeur.fr.

Sous le soleil de l'Atlantique sud, Tanguy de Lamotte profite des belles conditions pour nous parler de la protection de l'environnement à travers le projet "aware". Une autre belle cause défendue par le skipper d'Initiatives-coeur.

Here is the highlights video of the 76th day of the 2012-2013 Vendée Globe - Thursday, January 24, 2013.

While in Vang Vieng, Laos we mountain biked, cave explored, and swam at the Blue-ish Lagoon, but can't forget our lazy 3 hour tubing down the Nam Song River! We floated past small villages and stunning scenery. Some spots were deep and slow flowing and others shallow and quick, so shallow in spots you had to lift your butt so you didn't hit the bottom! We ended our float in a shallow spot right in front of our guest house. Fun.

Only a few places left in Asia practice the age old ritual of giving early morning (6am) alms to the monks. This is the only food they receive for the day. We were lucky enough to be a part of this in Luang Prabang, Laos A very unique and ancient experience in Asia and a unique Cultural experience for our son Cole. He is learning so much through travel.

There is a special agreement between Communist Laos and Thailand for travel. It is called the Friendship Bridge and it is a unique connection between the two Countries and also how we travelled back to Thailand from Laos. It was a great educational addition to Cole's home schooled travels of South East Asia and he remembers it well.

Our paragliding holiday in Kamshet, India. Paragliding Kamshet is a wonderful experience. There are many different practice sites in Kamshet for all different paragliding stages. And the team of Paragliding Mantra is very professional, capable and friendly. This is where my paragliding career started, and I would go back for paragliding Kamshet in a heartbeat. As far as Paragliding in India goes, Kamshet is probably one of the best places to learn.

A la faveur de conditions très agréables, Jean Le Cam a décidé de redonner des nouvelles de tous ses amis à bord de SynerCiel. Ainsi, on prend plaisir à revoir Théo, Ushu, Mr Costaud ou autre Marsupi.

Actuellement en pleine remontée de l'Atlantique, Bertrand de Broc souffre un petit peu de la forte chaleur à l'intérieur de son monocoque. Mais ces fortes températures n'ont pas fait perdre l'appétit du skipper de Votre Nom Autour du Monde avec EDM Projets.

Malgré ses récentes mésaventures, Alessandro Di Benedetto garde le sourire. Le skipper de Team Plastique remercie le public pour son soutien et donne des nouvelles de son état physique. Une chose est sûre : il en faudra plus pour plomber le moral du Franco-Italien.

The water was a spectacular turquoise this week, almost electric! After fun at the Bubbly Pools we took the dinghy around to Great Harbor and met up with Foxy at his famous bar on the beach, and he even sang a couple songs for us!

A l'instar de Dominique Wavre, Jean Le Cam nous explique l'importance des énergies à bord de SynerCiel. Le skipper nous gratifie même de plans spectaculaires.
