You may be wondering what the heck Don't Stop The Carnival, Kinja and the Gull Reef Club are all about.

It all begins with Don't Stop The Carnival, a very funny adventure story written by Herman Wouk about a
couple from New York who decide to move to the Caribbean and open a hotel....something we have always wanted to do!

Kinja is an imaginary island in the Caribbean where the story unfolds (much like the stories aboard our boat!).

Ah, and the Gull Reef Club....well, you will have to read the book to figure that one out !

BOARDED !!

What a difference a day makes.....really?  We saw a Coast Guard cutter as we cruised to our new destination and before we knew it there was a skiff  along side us.  As they pulled along side they asked "When was the last time you were boarded by the Coast Guard?"  I am thinking, "Are you for real?"  We said "Never".  They said, "Then be prepared to be boarded".    So we complied and two Coast Guard Officers boarded Kinja and we agreed to let them do a a complete search of the vessel. Your tax dollars at work!   Actually,  they we pretty nice guys.
