  1. Aladino, at 6:00 you compared that field to an ocean and you would like to sail itā€¦
    I couldnā€™t agree more. One time my friend and I were on the Canadian prairies in Saskatchewan , we were just joy riding in an old convertible car one evening after work.
    On the back roads, dirt roads, the fields looked just like that. it was cold with the top down, and that big Buick would float up and down at the crossroads. You could see for miles. We were both from Newfoundland, and we remarked how very much like being on the Ocean it wasā€¦.šŸ˜ŠšŸ˜Š

  2. Looking forward to what you make of sailing in the Baltic Sea. It is my home waters (in fact never sailed anywhere else) and IĀ“ve sailed it quite entensively. Finland, Sweden and Estonia, Gotland and Aland Islands, there is a lot to discover for you. And your boat is coming home. šŸ™‚

  3. Maya, you are a master wordsmith! Such a captivating tale you weave! What a beautiful place! Endless beauty and a wildness about it. You can almost see the viking ships comming home! Can't wait for the next one!

  4. It mustā€™ve been very heart breaking to find another magic carpet (design?) in such sad condition! Could you help find a new owner? Iā€™ll bet Alladino had a moment of thinking he could take it on! Is there old wooden boat restoration in Denmark? Has to be!

  5. Very enjoyable. Love the landscape and the narration and the music. You are right about that museum building. If it were almost anywhere in Canada, it would have been vandalized by teenagers. I do have to disagree with you on the ages of the fossils though. Even though Aladino made the age so much fun to listen to, I believe that just as so many things in the recent past, we have been lied to about the evidence for long ages by men who wanted to discredit the biblical view. The fossils are dated by the rock layers they are found in and the rock layers are dated by the fossils they contain. ALL the layers were laid down suddenly and required water and pressure for the buried life become fossils. Most fossils contain C14 which cannot be detected after an outside maximum of 100,000 years. Even diamonds contain C14.

  6. Maya. You, like my wife treasure cozy. I understand that feeling of warmth and safety in not so pleasant weather. Being from the Pacific Northwest we understand and share your love of being safe and secure. Press on.

  7. Just a quick question if I may: I quite like that that song "Hello Lisa (Liza, Elisa?), how do you do?". Who's the singer? The lyrics are clear and usually it's not hard to find. This one has got me stumped.

  8. Please donā€™t generalize about our beautiful country of Canada. We have a lot of sweet tiny museums in small towns all across our provinces, that arenā€™t vandalized. Cheers ā¤

  9. Denmark seems to be a very "save" environment. When I was sailing there I also saw a shop turned shed where they sold a certain brand of plastic bowls pure on the assumption of honest customers. or maybe it is an small island thing there …
    But I really like this view of the world šŸ™‚
