In cruising, there are many variables, even during normal times. Since we bought Skylark, our 'plan' has changed so many times based on curveballs such as maintenance and career opportunities.  Our original plan was to spend two years in Asia doing a massive loop through Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Palau, and then back to Thailand before crossing the Indian Ocean, all while commuting to work every month.  Instead we crossed both the Indian and Atlantic Ocean and are flying back in the United States again. We spend half our time on Skylark exploring the Caribbean.  It has been an absolute adventure and we are excited to see where our floating home will take us next.
