In USA again 😊

Pensacola, Florida, 12jan 2018
 
 
No, despite the above picture, Kenneth and Marie-Louise did not arrive with Air Force One :)

Jaha, det blev vÀl inte riktigt som vi tÀnkte.... I Sverige tittade vi förvÄnat pÄ vÀderprognoser dÀr vÄr Ambika vilade ut, i Orange Beach, Alabama; minusgrader! Mer minusgrader, i Mobile hade det snöat.... Vad hÀnder? Det har inte varit sÄ kallt pÄ 30 Är!
 
NĂ€r vi landade i Miami med vĂ„ra gastar Kenneth och Marie-Louise frĂ„n HĂ€radsskĂ€r, Ă€r det varmt och skönt men nĂ€r vi nĂ€rmade oss norra Florida och Alabama, efter tvĂ„ nĂ€tter pĂ„ hotell och 100 mils bilkörning, var det kulet, regnigt och blĂ„sigt, bara 13-16 grader....
 
Efter vi fÄtt stÀdat, fyllt pÄ vatten i tankarna och handlat mat och vin, tuffade vi ivÀg i regnet och med tidvis bara 50m sikt en kort distans via de inre vattenvÀgarna till Pensacola i Florida. DÀr, i Palafox Marina, blev vi inregnade och inblÄsta..........

Well, it was not the way we thought it would be..... In Sweden we looked at weather forecasts where our Ambika rested, in Orange Beach, Alabama; it was cold! Very cold and in Mobile it was snowing .... What's up? It has not been as cold in 30 years!
 
When we landed in Miami with our guests, Kenneth and Marie-Louise, it was warm and nice, but when we approached Alabama, after two nights at hotel, it was cool, rainy and windy, just around 60 degrees.
 
Anyway, after some clearing, water tank filling and grocery shopping we left Orange Beach and sailed 25 miles to the east, to Pensacola, where we still are awaiting better weather......
 
Kenneth and Marie-Louise’s stay was short. Due to the shitty weather they decided to rent a car earlier than planned and drive off to a warmer climate, down south. We wish them a nice and warm rest of their stay in Florida 😊
 
 
Fog in Pensacola, we’re stuck!
 
We are in the Deep South, who would have guessed?
 
 
But Santa is still going strong, despite the weather!
 
 
To pass some time in the cold and rain we went to the fantastic National Naval Museum in Pensacola, one of the larest in the world! Guess who was in seventh heaven!!! It took four hours to get a Lars out of there :)
 
 
Hundreds of old and modern air crafts on display, with focus on air craft carrier airplanes. We were truly impressed!

Tiden gÄr fort, kÀra vÀnner. Men vilken start ni fick. Tur för Lasse, sÄ han fick se alla gamla aerodyner pÄ museet...
HÀrliga, kalla bilder i dimma. Ur led Àr tiden. Eller - start far ni fram i balsamisk vÀrme igen. Lycka till pÄ sista etappen. Eva o jag Àr "med" er.

Svar: Kallstart pÄ vÄr Àra. I morse var det minus 2 ute och 7 grader inne. Brrr!
MÄtte det bli lite varmare framöver!!
