The Trick is to Keep Breathing | Janice Galloway

If you have been following my sailing adventures, I am happy to report that I am back in the Caribbean for a few short months. Having arrived into Barbados after an easy 3 week crossing from the Canary Is, we have since visited St Lucia and Martinique. This shot is of the green flash I have been looking out for each day at sunset. I have caught it 4 times, it's pretty cool. Looking forward to catching up on Litsy.

Simona Will you post more often, please!?!😘 (edited) 6y

AceOnRoam Thanks @AmyG 😊 6y

AceOnRoam @Suet624 ohh, I have that on my kindle, so this gives me more incentive to get to it soon! 6y

AceOnRoam Thank you @LauraBeth hope all is good with you 😘 6y

AceOnRoam @8little_paws We are trying to do that, we have done an Atlantic circuit and into the Med. Hopefully we can get one circumnavigation done before we are too old to lift the anchor 😄 6y

AceOnRoam @Tanisha_A thank you!!! 6y

AceOnRoam @Simona Yes sure thing honey, I just have internet issues but have the good SIM now for a few months. I promise to bombard you with beautiful island shots 😘💕 6y

8little_paws Wow that's neat! I love boats but I think i'm too scared of the ocean to do that! Though our longer term plans are to bike as much of the world as we can 6y

AceOnRoam @8little_paws that would be a great way to see the world..it would be even slower than us!! All the best 💕 6y

BarbaraBB Gorgeous! So cool that you‘ve crossed the Atlantic!! I really envy you. Echoing Simona, please share more pictures now that you‘ve got internet access 😘 6y

On Beauty | Zadie Smith

Random castle and a turtle swimming around the boat (very shy) and lots of mobile phone coverage here. Reading On Beauty by Zadie Smith which is very funny and reminds me of White Teeth.

sammisho Where is this? Looks like Lake of the Ozarks? 7y

AceOnRoam @sammisho Vonitsa, Greece 7y

sammisho @AceOnRoam Definitely NOT the Ozarks! 😂 7y

AceOnRoam @sammisho 😅😅, no, but I looked them up, they look gorgeous too! 7y

AmyG Wow that looks amazing. 7y

Liz_M Oh! If you can, read a synopsis of the tagged book (or watch the movie with Emma Thompson) because On Beauty is a homage/rewrite of it.

Howards End

AceOnRoam @Liz_M really? I did not know that. I must go investigate. THANK YOU 💛 7y

Liz_M I didn't know either until I was refreshing my memory in order to write a review. 😁 7y

AceOnRoam @AmyG thanks, it's a lovely spot... 7y

AceOnRoam @Liz_M ah! I loved White Teeth also, but didn't think much of Swing Time. 7y

Redheadrambles Oh that looks lovely ! I read this so long ago but I liked it 7y

AceOnRoam @Redheadrambles it's a tad dated as they are listening to their Discman's 😂 but it's a fun read for sure. 7y

SledgeReader @AceOnRoam You are living the dream!!! 7y

Cathythoughts Oh so heavenly 7y

AceOnRoam @SledgeReader I am!!!!! ⛵ 7y

AceOnRoam @Cathythoughts very Cathy, it's a great little anchorage 💛 7y

ClairesReads Looks so beautiful there- I love your lifestyle. I also really loved this book! I first read it towards the end of high school- my English teacher recommended White Teeth, and I loved it, so I got this too. 7y

AceOnRoam @ClairesReads thanks Claire. I love her writing style. Not sure what happened with Swing Time. Maybe I need to revisit. 7y

Redwritinghood Looks lovely. I really liked White Teeth so I should pick this one up too. 7y

AceOnRoam @Redwritinghood thanks, I will let you know how it goes. 7y

Greek Islands, fantastic book in my hands, lovely Littens online.

What more could a girl ask for? Champagne actually, but there is none on board. White wine will do I think.

Have a lovely weekend everyone and thanks for all the likes!!!!

Houston, We Have a Problem | Erin McCarthy

I think my Litsy feed is playing up and I'm not always seeing your last post when I view your profile. However, I do try to return all the likes I get and support you back as much as I am able.

Appreciate this community so much and yesterday was proof that I will be a childish mess beating on my husbands chest that "MY BOOK APP IS DOWN WAAA!!!" if there is another extended outage ?

RaimeyGallant Same! 7y

Tamra Yes! 👍🏾 7y

AceOnRoam I have reported it @RaimeyGallant . This is not a new issue for me, it was happening last week as well, but I thought it was a minor glitch. Today it's more pronounced across multiple profiles I view. 7y

See All 13 Comments

TheKidUpstairs I find when I go to someone's profile, I have to manually reload it to see the latest posts (on my phone, I swipe down to reload). 7y

RaimeyGallant They sent a message out saying they're having problems with their hosting and are working to resolve. 7y

AceOnRoam Yes, that's exactly the issue @TheKidUpstairs but for me it's been an ongoing issue since last week. Perhaps the servers have been sick and they just had a final meltdown yesterday. We need proper healthcare at Litsy headquarters. I wonder if there is anything we can do to help? 7y

AceOnRoam Thanks for that update @RaimeyGallant I didn't get the Litsy notification until after the problem was resolved yesterday 😁 I might go check my mailbox... 7y

[DELETED] 3803335244 I kept complaining to my husband too! Lol 7y

AceOnRoam @ForeverNerdy My husband was giving me the Sheldon Cooper pat on the back "There, there...pat, pat. There there, pat pat" Rolling his eyes no doubt. 7y

AceOnRoam @Tamra I hope you coped ok too. Back to normal programming today I hope. 7y

Tamra @AceOnRoam it was probably meant for me because I was entering grades and really didn‘t need the distraction! 😂 7y

Tamra @AceOnRoam 😆 7y

2 A.M. at The Cat's Pajamas | Marie-Helene Bertino

So many cats in Turkey, they are very cute. This one, Chatalot, who lives at the marina here, has won Mr AceOnRoam's heart, gets fed, gets to snuggle up on the couch and thinks he is coming to New Zealand with us. Hmmm. Security screening is going to be an issue! #catsoflitsy

AceOnRoam He is indoors now and a storm is brewing. We might have to keep him overnight. We cannot take him to NZ as we are flying lol, he would also be freezing cold in the South Island, even tho' it's spring there! @LeahBergen 7y

LeahBergen 😫 you‘ll miss him. 😫 7y

AceOnRoam True dat @LeahBergen 7y

I have been crossing from Montenegro to Turkey and offline for a week, I've missed my Littens so I'll catch up on your posts and check out reviews soon. For now, I'm going to be listening to my favourite modern day hero Jack Reacher, I'm so grateful to my library to have this book available a day after its release.
