During the first night, we could feel the boat moving more, and lots of strange banging noises. By the morning the seas has grown. We were due to stop at Astoria Oregon for the day. However, the captain made the call to skip this port as we were now in a hurricane!! Waves in excess of 20 feet. We rode out the hurricane at sea ..... (we were expecting a possible hurricane in the Atlantic but not in the Pacific!!)
Monday came and news from Jimmy that he needed to have surgery on his thyroid. Unfortunately the doctor could not do surgery til 6th October. However, Jimmys heard he is the best so worth the wait and pray the doctor doesn't find anything when he opens him up.
