We have crossed the English Channel
We crossed the channel today in 11 hours and 39 minutes.:) We are all very excited and exhausted. I will update the blog tomorrow with pictures and stories from our big day.
We look forward to hearing about your harrowing experiences. If there were no 40 foot waves, great white sharks, schools of jelly fish or a wayward Russian submarine in your paths you need to make up something to regale us at the wedding!
We hope Greg did not fall out of the boat.
See you in September and most sincere and heart felt congratulations from your soon to be godfather/uncle and aunt -in law.
Shelle and fellow Doggers, Huge Congratulations on your AMAZZZZING accomplishment! That definitely tops the Shark Week premier. Can’t wait to see the pics and blog update…
Shelle, You & your team are rockstars! I'm so impressed, as always :-) Can't wait to hear the details of how it feels to be one who made it and in fantastic time! I'm sure Greg is a super cheer man. Hopefully none of you were too sea sick. Get home safe so we can celebrate your life together! Your future sister-out-law, Theresa
