Photo du Jour - Clearing Customs
























Since I mentioned Tropic Moon yesterday, I thought I'd post a picture of her today.  In this photo, we're clearing Customs in Gibraltar (1984).  That's the fog-shrouded Rock of Gibraltar in the background.  Ed is raising the courtesy flag (British, in this case) and the yellow quarantine flag.  The yellow flag has to stay up until the boat has cleared Customs.  Yes, this was our home for 14 years, and, yes, we did sail across the Atlantic - twice - in this small boat.  I know, I can't believe it either....
