We began adventuring on our sailboat, Beatrice, in December 2008 and will probably end our cruise in the Summer of 2010.  And “adventuring” is the right word to use of our experiences.  We are grateful for the adventures we have been given (That is partly what we wanted, wasn’t it?), but we can’t help hoping that our future adventures are more of the “pony rides in May sunshine” variety, as Bilbo Baggins would say. 

To each of us, I believe, God is telling a story, and the sharing of these stories with one another is surely one of the great sources of joy, fun and wisdom in life.  This website is about a piece of our story.  We hope you enjoy it!  The idea is to enable you to share our adventures and come with us in a virtual way.  That is why we’ve called the website “Yallabina!”  In Arabic, this means “Let’s go!”  To proceed, click on the “blog” button at the top of the page.  If you would like to read a short overview of our experiences, click on the “Adventure Summary” button.
