Checked in with (sailing) friends to let them know we made to Santa Marta Marina, Columbia He made the comment that we were probably safer here than we would be in the USA & how strange that was to say that. This is not normal

All parties in Greenland's parliament have issued a statement condemning Trump's rhetoric: "We cannot accept the repeated statements about annexation and control of Greenland. As party leaders, we find this behavior unacceptable towards friends and allies in a defense alliance"

We must not normalize the insanity surrounding Trump’s territorial demands. Canada, Greenland, Panama etc. It’s all RIDICULOUS. But the naive and biased media take it seriously, egg him on and soon America will be at war with its allies. Meanwhile Russia will be given a pass in Ukraine. 🤦🏼‍♂️

Shopping win, my food allergies make finding some food hard. Lots of USA brands, so I've been doing without. Today we found so many items from Europe & India, so freaking happy. I refuse to support this regime & those who support him by actions or silence Sorry to all those caught up in this BS

Not knowing who you will get & the unpredictability of everything is part of why we have gone to huge lengths not to sail in USA waters & won't support the "regime" Sick of other DT supporters who are fellow sailors that have been gaslighting us as Canadians for our stance

Dear 🇺🇸, Trump saying he wants to take over 🇨🇦 & inflict economic pain on us for his own good is a mix of economic warfare, expansionism, and narcissistic power grabbing. It’s the most appalling thing your nation could do to a peaceful people who fought alongside of you and have done nothing wrong.

The quiet anchorage we are at now has a big chatered catamaran "Valentine" (guests from ??) that cranked their music. Being the passive aggressive type, I've decided that side will be where I hang all the underwear as I do a little washing, as the rest of the crew is on shore. 😂
