Leaving for Portugal, on Monday. Some info:

It's hard to tell but it's almost the length of a small cruise ship.

Took 3 gas trucks to fill it up.

The sails were raised electronically by push button.

Lots of crew members and they have to take off their shoes once onboard.

You can sail on it for a minimum of $10,000. A couple boarded with their luggage right before it sailed.

I think the person who headed Hewlett Packard owns it, but I'm not sure.

Wow, that's some yacht, I had to look it up.

Here is a link that might be useful: Maltese Falcon yacht

That's it Casey. I'm thinking that it may be crossing near Canada. The website below has a tracking feature where you can see it at any one time. Right now it's off the coast of the States, heading towards Canada (I think).

Here's a bromeliad from my gardens.

Yes Moni,what kind of fruit tree is that.

My very first ever made-from-scratch banana pudding--with meringue!!
The supermarket was running a special: free nilla wafers when you buy 3 lbs of bananas.:)
