Mallorca is on our route from mainland Spain to Greece on the upcoming boat delivery.
The Can Opener is about to begin studying exceptionally hard and all good Can Openers deserve an extra bit of start-up motivation.
We’re gonna take a moment to relax, put the paws up, crack open the smoked oysters, and picture the future… in Mallorca. We can hardly wait!!

Crewing on the boat delivery from Spain to Greece… looks like it might really come through!
That gives the Can Opener just a few short months to become bilingual.
To ensure the deed is well done, I have filled an ipod with Spanish lessons culled from the CD that came with his textbook. Then I attach this to his head while he is doing my dishes, ironing my cape and polishing my sceptre.
I expect great results.
Meanwhile we are both so excited, we are doing some more destination dreamin’ of Spain!

I figure if the Can Opener’s upgrading his French for cruising in the Pacific Islands, why not kill two birds with one stone (yum) and get a ‘How to Cruise’ text in French to study with?
Come to think of it… the Can Opener’s just a beginner at Spanish. I bet I can find some kind of beginner ‘learn to sail’ book that covers parts of the boat and basic terminology in Spanish.
Maybe something put out by the Spanish yachting association or on amazon.es. Hmm. Off to research…

Captain Cat (tail lashing): Why would I do that?
We may have a line on a catamaran delivery from Spain to Greece… It’s with a guy we met at the Cruising Dinner. Will it pan out? Who knows?! At least we feel like the ball is rolling… and that feels great!
Now we’ve got somewhere to aim for. We’re pretty good at dreaming of Greece. And now’s as good a time as any to start dreamin’ of Spain…

Captain Cat: Incidentally, Can Opener. How goes the Spanish studying?
Can Opener: I’m plugging the podcasts into my head as we speak… ¿Qué tal?!
