Challenging?

Unpleasant? For sure. Boring? Definitely. Tiring? Most likely.
Dangerous? Quite possibly, though it was an ocean going yacht, no doubt
self-righting, with modern navigation equipment and communications.

But challenging? Somehow I don't see it.

Well, no I don't, because I don't want to be on the news and chat shows.

Ditto.

Did they actually want to meet Jessica either? They may regard her as a
spoilt brat, but their actions would be dictated by political
considerations.

could let on.

Agreed but in the JW case its difficult to know if she chased the
publicity or they chased her, to some extent the blame for the over the
top media coverage must lie with the media because they will almost do
anything to sell advertising space in their newspapers and TV.

I don't know (or care) what they might be, but only a completely brain dead
vegetable would think that I was a Catholic :)

I don't think most Australians could afford to quit their jobs to watch
their daughter spend 7 months paddling around in an over-priced boat.
