The Captain and the crew

The Ryans used to live in Miami many years ago. They now live in Colorado. They traded the sea with the mountains. They did long to be back on the water, so here they are wanting to share their old memories with their daughter Amber who was born in Miami but left at a very young age. The wind was gentle the day was warm , but a swim in the cool bay cooled everybody.
Here in their own words.
Captain Asaad, life today, in/on your office is a slice of heaven. From your new family , thank you so much for a wonderful day, love, Judy
Thank you for a wonderful day and experience, it would not have been the same without you, Amber
Captain Asaad, thank you for the blue sky, warm water and the magic of the sea that we wanted to share with Amber and Mark. It touches our memories in Miami, Alive again, Larry
Asaad, Thank you very much , my first time at sea. It was great and I will remember this for ever, thank you ,Mark Welser.
