The Sea and I

May 17, 2013 by Sheila | A B & Me Leave a Comment

The sea and I? Lame title, huh? Sorry, my brain is not functioning properly. 
 
Anyway, we had a very nice day out from office last week. We rented out a small yacht, sailed out to the sea and did a little bit of fishing. 
 
 

The yacht is from Xclusive Yachts. (Click the link, they have nice photos of the yacht)
 Overview:

Xclusive 4 is our entry level fly bridge yacht. Set over three levels, she is spacious and elegant with a stylish lounge, two comfortable en suite bedrooms and a large sunbathing deck. The saloon features a fully equipped galley with microwave, oven and fridge, cleverly blended into the same comfortable area, making a superb entertainment room with all round views to enjoy. The upper deck has a comfortable seating area and viewing platform.
Length: 48 ft
Capacity: 12 Guests
Crew: 2 Crew
Bedrooms: 3 bedrooms

I do not have claustrophobia but when I went below deck, I immediately felt dizzy. I was sweating profusely and I needed air … badly! So I just went back up and enjoyed the breeze.

The cabins were really tight. I don’t even remember how I managed to use the toilet. I never knew I could be so …bendy. We stopped somewhere to do our fishing business. Everyone got their rods and waited.

Fish. They caught one. I didn’t. 🙁

Then we saw this island. The captain, whom we fondly called Captain Jack (mainly because I can’t remember his name … he’s got this really nice exotic Kenyan name), told me that this is an island owned by the Sheikh.

A private island! With your own ship!!

Ahhhhh… the good life. 
We ended the trip with a short swim and a very hearty lunch. I wish we had done this when the weather was still good.

Hey there! I’m a mom of two who loves to crochet. Balancing work and motherhood is crazy, but I handle it with love and humor. With my eldest entering her tween years, the chaos just got a whole lot more interesting!

I’m fueled by coffee and dream of working from home. When I need to chill, I turn to my trusty essential oils. They’re my secret weapon for staying sane in the madness.

Join me for mom life, crochet, and my journey to work from home and retire before life passes me by.

Hello!

Hey there!
We’re a Filipino family of four figuring things out in California after living in Dubai for years. This space is part blog, part memory box—where we share life lately, parenting wins and fails, travels, and everything in between.

Sometimes it’s deep, sometimes it’s funny, but it’s always honest. Thanks for hanging out with us!

Found this gem while sorting through my phone. Thi Found this gem while sorting through my phone. This was taken a couple of years ago, during the pandemic. I always thought it was funny… but when I showed it to Adam again, he finally told me who he was talking to. 😂

It moved me in a different way this time. Because honestly? We do this a lot. We call on God, and when He answers… we put Him on hold.

But Scripture reminds us:
“Then you will call on Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you.” — Jeremiah 29:12

If we call, He answers. The question is—are we ready to listen? And when He calls us, are we willing to pick up?

“Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, ‘Whom shall I send?’ And I said, ‘Here am I. Send me.’” — Isaiah 6:8

Yes, God. Here I am.
