12.2009 Honolulu, Hawaii. The end of my solitary cruise around the world. Have I really done it? How did I manage? Probably, I'll be wondering about it for a long long time.
It's full moon and the wind is weak, the waves are gently pushing me towards the harbour. There are still about 10 miles left, I can see the glow of Honolulu, illuminated skyscrapers, a lot of airplanes, ships, the stars. It's a bit chilly but it's beautiful! It's incredible – yesterday it was hell on Earth, but today I have a motive for sailing.
I don't know what emotions I'm feeling. I'm happy, but at the same time a bit sorry that the cruise has finished so quickly – I set off from Honolulu at the end of July, 2007. Time flies, doesn't it? I know that my friends and some relatives will be waiting for me on the seashore. I just can't wait to meet them and eat something different than my canned food :)
I'd like to thank all those people who supported me and also those who didn't believe in me...
I'm also grateful to all the people thanks to whom I could proudly carry the flag of our independent Poland.
