Long Beach, California…I am setting sail on my most ambitious part of my trip so far! 21 days crossing the Pacific Ocean aboard Holland America’s Volendam…

Multiple sea days on an old style crossing that will bring me to Hawaii, Fiji, and the South Pacific before reaching the glorious Sydney Harbor!

I have a lot of magazines, my iPad is loaded, and empty sketchbooks to keep me busy!

It will be a total shock signing off the “grid”for awhile as I am in the middle of the ocean for days…
