Notes For The Granddaughters

Arianna, 16, and Olivia, 13, just telephoned -- "Facetime" -- from the Aegean Sea. They are on a sailboat sailing among the Greek islands for the next seven days or so, sleeping on the boat at night. Their dad is the skipper, Arianna is the first mate, and Olivia is the narrator-videographer. They are the only three on the sailboat -- doing it on their own. This is the first time they have sailed as a team. Arianna and Olivia have taken sailing lessons but this is their first voyage on their own (with their dad -- also his first open water sailing adventure).

This is probably one of the better sites to get an idea of what they are doing, and a photo of the type of sailboat they are probably on.
