Murphy's Law in Action


On Friday we caught an 8:05 ferry from Dublin to Holyroad in Wales on the Isle of Anglesey.

From there we took a train and taxi back to the boat.

And then the fun began.

Our batteries were dead so we couldn't start the engine.

Without the engine we had no electricity.

Without the electricity we had no water or heat.

And the overnight temperature was below freezing so we did what any reasonable person would do, we snuggled under two duvets fully clothed including our fleece vests.

In the morning I brewed hot tea, made oatmeal, and baked bread and cookies to allow the oven to help warm up the space.

We are now plugged into shore power.

The heat is on and we have electricity and intermittent connectivity.

What more could a girl ask for?
