A little bit of fear setting in now….

From the beginning there was absolutely no trace of fear in me about the Clipper adventure. It was more anticipation, curiosity, overwhelming commitment and excitement. Everybody who I told about it talked about the fear and the sea sickness and the worry about the cramped space with 20 other people.


But then I watched these video clips from CNN and for the first time I had a pang of fear…


Better get my will sorted! ;-)


Watch this to get an idea of what we'll be going through… especially the third video - scary stuff!

(if the videos all load with the same image - try clicking on the title links instead)
