    Deets:
    Today Andrew responds to some great questions, thank you Eirik, Angele and Karen!
    Questions include:
    ~ "What's one thing that people who have NOT been on a boat in a race like this, will never quite understand (unless they do it themselves)? I feel like watching you I intellectually feel what it most be like and live through you, but I'm sure there are 100 layers between that and the real thing."
    ~ "What food (that you aren’t able to access in the moment) do you miss the most while out at sea?"
    ~ "What does it feel like when you are at the halfway mark? Meaning in the ocean with no land at all just the sea : knowing it is just really you , the crew , the boat and the ocean. No rescue easily."
    ~ "How do you not vomit with some of these waves? I feel like the boat can really pitch."

    ~ "Celebrating our friend Kirsten.. what would your last message to the world be?"

    ~ "Do you ever just crave a walk?"
    ~ "What is apparent wind?"
    Enjoy!!

    ~ "I notice, even after being on a 24 hour sail, the first good meal ashore somehow tastes better than anything I’ve ever had before. It’s a strange phenomenon. Have you experienced anything like that during the trip?"

    Today Andrew answers some great questions - thank you Karen, Carolyn, Leslie, Monique, Olga, Eirik, Karin, and Ellie!
    Questions include:
    ~ "How is embracing new people changing the dynamics/communication? Seems like you would just get used to one way of doing things and then shift again with new crew."
    ~ "Can you explain what happens under the different types of clouds? Did you head for the clouds or try to avoid them!? (Seems like it could be an approach to life!)"
    ~ "What edges have you teetered on? What showed up next?"
    ~ "What most challenged you on this leg and how did you grow from it?"
    ~ "In what ways has this experience changed you already?"
    ~ "Are you starting to think about life after the race – how do you plan to integrate back into normal life?"
    ~ "Has Andrew's understanding of being safe (either physically or emotionally or both) shifted in any way as a result of the sailing experience. Totally asking from a terrified-of-any-large-body-of-water person's point of view :)"
    ~ "What was something you've seen/experienced that was the same across all the legs so far, and what was different/more dynamic each time?"
    ~ "What's been your lowest moment so far?"
    ~ "Are there any kinks that happened as a team, that are now smooth? If so – how did you collectively do that?"
    ~ "How is your BODY dealing with all of this?"
    ~ "On your best and most fulfilling days, what is happening, how are you feeling, and what are the thoughts going on in your mind? On the tougher days, what's happening, how are you feeling, and what are the thoughts?"
    ~ "What would you love to share with teens and young adults about the qualities or thinking that have most contributed to your persistence and resilience on your journey?"
    ~ "There's like zero privacy on the boat! How do you handle that?"

    Questions include:

    ~"What would you say to people that are in situations where it seems like they can't continue with a dream, putting "their" life aside to take care of someone e.g. parents with dementia? How to listen to truth and potential in the midst of hardness?"
    ~"Have you had any fearful moments yourself where shit went so far sideways you weren't sure what to do next? Also, can you explain what the penalty for equipment damage is all about?"

    ~"What's the daily routine? How does the day start, does the team debrief? How often?"

    "Capable of handling much much more than we could possibly imagine".. Cape Town, South Africa, Leg 2/8

    "Capable of handling much much more than we could possibly imagine".. Cape Town, South Africa, Leg 2/8

    NSFW Alert.. I drop an accidental f-bomb toward the end! That's why the E marker.

    Today’s is an inspiring and thoughtful conversation with our favorite ocean sailor, whose racing journey from Uruguay to South Africa... kinda didn’t go as planned.

    As Andrew shares in the Climb Aboard Andrew’s Adventure Facebook group, “Mother nature does what she does... Assigning responsibility to mother nature is pointless.
    “In the end, this is just an intense personal learning opportunity.”

    We also get to hear about..
    ~ Boat restrooms
    ~ Andrew’s progress in his personal quest to not dread cooking for the crew
    ~ How the assassin game turned out
    ~ Some of the most wonder filled and marvelous moments during this part of this leg of the race.

    Join us!

    Special thanks to Angele, Olga, and Dean of the Climb Aboard Andrew’s Adventure Facebook group, who brought some great questions!
