Just a few weeks ago there were ice boats sailing on the Hudson River. Despite the lingering winter the long days of sun changed that. The Ice is retreating, big chunks floating with the tide.
The lighthouses of the Mediterranean are no less impressive than those in any other part of the world. After all, these were the waters of the known world for quite some time.
I have always had a fascination with lighthouses. I marvel at the organization of the system of lights for navigation. For me, no less impressive even in today’s world of GPS which is now so accurate. They have become touchstones, memories of the ocean races I have sailed with so many shipmates.
