pirate New to this world
Hello, I just joined this site. I will be moving to a ship with my two young children and husband that will be anchored in a quiet bay. He'll sail the boat to the harbor and we will fly out to meet him. My husband is the true sailor in the family and I have been the earth bound half. I am, of course, a bit nervous about this new adventure and what to expect. The girls will be either attending an online school or will be home schooled. I would welcome some bits of advice from other families who have or are doing this. I am gathering as much information from as many sites as I can.

Thank you ahead of time.

Re: New to this world
Aloha and welcome aboard!
Good to have you here. If your vessel is truly a ship you'll need more than just your family as crew but you'll have plenty of space for the kids to run around.
kind regards,
