#73: The best Christmas gift ever!

https://youtu.be/lCBFRpyHd-0

The best Christmas gift EVER + we have one for you too! ๐ŸŽ…๐Ÿผ๐ŸฆŒ๐ŸŽ๐ŸŽ„

Merry Christmas guys!!!! This year, thereโ€™s nothing more than we could wish for ourselves than being reunited with Polar Seal in time for Christmas.

After flying from Spain, isolating ourselves at our friendโ€™s farm in Sweden for two weeks, taking a (negative) covid test 48 hours before flying and a full day in an airplane, we made it back to Curacao and Polar Seal. 

We spend the holidays isolated on an island where we know nobody, far away from our families and as for many of you, this year didnโ€™t bring the type of Christmas celebration we would normally wish for, but it is the best nonetheless. Given the circumstances, we feel enormously blessed to be where we are, to be healthy, and to celebrate in the comfort of an apartment with AC. 

This year, it doesnโ€™t get any better than that and weโ€™ll enjoy every second of it :)

2020 has been quite an adventure for us as sailors and Youtube creators, and we are so happy to end it on a happy note!
