  • We were only planning to stay in Statia for one week but the island had other plans for us. In this video, we dive and hike around St. Eustatius but what is the real reason we stayed for so long? Watch the entire video to find out!

    All I can say is what an Awesome Video this is! This has to be my favorite video thus far! The dive was soooooooooooo good with sunken boats, the fish casually swimming around, and the plants and coral. The volcano hike was so lushly green with plants and vegetation. What a stipe hike to the top and into the volcano that was....and the drone work was breathtaking. Yes...the people seem so friendly and nice there.

    It's me again - sort of 'One Life' binge watching... I forgot to mention my first comment here about hiking with a long stick to catch the spider webs. That's what I do when I go out hiking on paths that are not traveled much. I hate spiders in my face!!!

    • @SailingOneLife
      @SailingOneLife  Před 2 lety

      Oh yeah, we call that spider duty! 😆 normally Gary does that with his face but a stick would be a much better idea! PS, thanks for binge watching ♥️

    What is this little melody that Gary keeps teasing us with (the one right at the beginning)? I dig it. Did he come up with it himself? Or is it from a known song?

    • @SailingOneLife

      Nice catch, Jason! He started to come up with a little One Life song.........that's the lead in but all he has so far! Maybe he will get back to it during our long Pacific crossing this spring!

    I’m curious which vax they were giving out. I’m trying to align your vax time to when I got mine in the states.
