On this Sweet 16 day, Grandma and Grandpa Sailor are anchored in Nai Yang Bay. We’re going to be here for a while, maybe until May. Here’s a map of Phuket Island (which is in Thailand). Can you see the airplane? That’s very close to where we are. And yes, we see and hear lots of airplanes everyday.

These days, we also see lots of jelly fish. Normally there are none, but lately they are a bit of a nuisance. Today we will see if we can count 16. When you were in PEI, did you ever see 16 jelly fish in one day? Are there any jelly fish in Alberta?

To celebrate today, we rented a motorcycle and went to Boat Lagoon Marina to join some friends for a yummy Thai food lunch. While we were there, Grandpa bought 16 stainless-steel fasteners for CanKata. Then, when we came back to CanKata, we had a very special Sweet 16 snack: 16 M&Ms, 16 peanut pieces, and 16 raisins. We wonder what you did on this special day.
