Its 23:51 ... just said goodbye to Daniel, we were both very emotional, i am on the eve of the biggest adventure of my life.
I realise i haven't finished the update on the Part C training from my previous entry ... foregive m i will soon.
I am really grateful to Corinne and Dave, Blake and Joanna for bringing Daniel to Liverpool to see me off; they have all had a chance to look over the boat and see where i will live for the next 10 months, Daniel met up with some of my fellow crew mates, i am so proud of him, he's my boy.
This will be the longest i have ever been away from Daniel since he was born, before now i have never been apart from him for more than 3 days and even then we would normally speak on the phone every day. I love my Daniel so very much, he is my life and the most precious person to me.
Daniel made a short video with Dave on the boat which i hope he will show at school soon after he gets back.
To my son Daniel .....Daniel be proud of who you are, stand tall, be confident and always try your very best. So many people love you and are looking out for you while i am away ........... be assured i am coming back; the oceans are a big and sometimes dangerous place, i will be careful and come home safely.
This event is a major episode in both our lives, something we must both get the most from. I miss you already and have a tear in my eye as i type this ...... Daniel i dedicate all my efforts and achievements in the forthcoming race to you; should anything happen, you are my only son, i am so proud of you and love you with all my heart xx God Bless Daddy xxxx
