    Woo hoo, Michelle and Steve , glad your both home safe and sound, and with some very interesting memories to tell the dogs! What an adventure of "breaking in" a new boat, fixing loose things and breakdowns, and navigating the bureaucracy! Thank you so much for including us all on this trip. We all managed to fit quite nicely on board!
    I love this little Diesel Duck, and I'm so glad you got the flying bridge version! I'm looking forward to seeing her navigating around the Canadian sounds and coastline in the future.
    Now, back to chainsaws, logs, precision cuts and making it up as you go along! Cheers from NZL, David. ❤🛥⚓🛂

    Hi Steve and Michy, I was so looking forward to your trip to Japan, my ship's homeport was Yokosuka and I was so looking forward to you guys visiting Japan. I love Japan, it is a beautiful country as well as the people. Taipei was another favorite place of mine. That was really nice of Michy to visit the dog at the CG station and play with it. I do hope you did some videoing in Japan and will show us at a later date. Thanks so much for taking us along on your journey home. By the way, Happy Canada.

    Michelle and Steve. You guys likely know Im a regular follower. This series of episodes was an incredible adventure for you, but what a wonderful adventure and experience it turned out for me! And I want to thank you guys for that. I could write a mile of content, but I have decided to just keep it short, because I know you guys are really busy. I cant close without saying how emotionally touched I was , when you guys got home to your dogs. My dogs are my kids now, since Im now an old man of 70. Im still dealing with my "dog" tears, as I finish my comments. Please let me close by saying that Michelle and Steve are some of the coolest people on this planet. Id like to wish you both a lifetime of peace, harmony, prosperity, and happiness. More than anything, please please continue the life and experiences that you guys share with us.
