Rating: Summary: An Amazing Adventure Review: Once I started reading about the Carlin's adventure, I couldn't stop. It is a terrific account of a remarkable journey. Ms. Kratz keeps us wanting more, more, more as we go from Guatemala, to Panama, to Australia, to the Middle East and finally back to Texas. The Carlin's are one intrepid couple and Ms. Kratz recorded their experiences wonderfully.

Rating: Summary: But not exactly a vacation! Review: Since I know the author personally, I had a more than passing interest in reading this story. And, what a story it is! I was grateful to be experiencing all that the Carlin's did, but from the comfort of my La-Z-boy rather than the cockpit of their boat. What a way to see the world! I experienced the whole range of emotions, exhaustions, delights, fears, confusions and terrors these adventurers did and was amazed that they actually completed the circumnavigation and lived to tell about it."All the time.." will be 'must' reading for anyone contemplating taking on any similar adventure, and I feel it's 'should' reading for the less daring among us who nonetheless crave adventure, excitement and challenge.
