Getting underway in "Wild Blue" in grand style.

Well, our heads are coming out of the clouds and I have Wifi, so I thought I should post something.

No there hasn't been low overcast, in fact it has been sunny most of everyday, but the whole experience of picking up the boat has been so intense, but delightful that we just now shaking our heads and saying it is "real".

Currently at Otter Bay marina at the north end of North Pender Island, we spent the last three days on Sucia Island.

Initially we had planned one day, but it was so beautiful and there where so many wonderful hikes, we decided to decompress another day. When on the third day we woke up to a bit of wind (actually Small Craft Advisory in Haro Strait) we decided, "hey we a cruising with no time table let's stay another night!"

Here are a few shots from Sucia;
In the first photo "Wild Blue" is at the end of the dock with a Ranger Tug 31 immediately behind us so you can see we were the little fish in the big sea.



One of the hikes took us out to Ewing Cove where we found the yoga studio ;)
The second shot is looking back into Echo Bay.


This morning we had an easy 6 kph run to Bedwell Harbor for an easy check in at Canadian Customs and then on up to Otter Bay.
