Summary

When Lynn's Captain acquires dementia, their world turns upside down. Rather than fight it, they float to the Southern Hemisphere in the tropical islands of Fiji and connect with two beautiful Fijian women, Mela and Neil, who help care for Captain on his journey with memory loss. Captain thrives in the island environment and the four of them have cultural experiences and adventures throughout the islands.
They explore pristine coral reefs and swim with manta rays and sharks. They attend traditional kava rituals with village chiefs and fill their house with love from Fijian family members and friends.
Lynn shares stories from her past travels, which helps her navigate this new path. Traveling in remote Africa, she encounters spectacular wildlife experiences. She crews on a small sailboat across the Atlantic and volunteers on the ocean, helping protect the ocean's creatures, while facing poachers and pirates.
Lynn's past meets her present and she learns how to become captain of her ship of care. Join them in this inspirational true story of finding unique care in the islands of Fiji.
