While travelling the world Freddie has had to light a lot of fires for us although not on board Miss Tippy!
A giant birthday lighter seemed to suit his crazy need for flame.
Freddie on his 12th birthday 11th August 2010 at sea sailing from Vanuatu to Australia.
The girls blew balloons and we made cakes when the sea was fairly wild and the boat quite ” TIPPY”.
Freddie made his own cake!!
The other half of the cake was eaten later, it was covered with melted mars bars which had been hidden in the freezer for about 3 months.
There was one special present…..an IOU for an IPOD touch, but Freddie would have to wait as there aren’t many shops in the middle of the ocean!
The wind increased during the day and the boat became more “Tippy”
It’s getting rough we need more cake was the comment!
By nightfall even the skipper was hanging on for dear life…….
The children soon sent Brain back up to the helm and snuggled up in our bed hoping they wouldn’t be thrown around the boat.
Here is Freddie a week later in Austalia at the Apple shop in Sydney with the present he was so suprised to get at last!
Thanks to everyone for the emails, phonecalls, and presents.

Watch Freddie as he tries to eat a donut without licking his lips!

Why WALK Easter Island when you can QUAD BIKE it? An alternative to Mum and Dads advice to see the natural sights of Rapa Nui, the most remote inhabited place in the world. We left the boat in Tahiti to fly 4020 km instead of sailing for 2-3 weeks against the wind to get there. Wise choice!
What an experience!! Watch as they perform their underwater ballet!
