Hunkering Down | 6.4.2020 | Poulsbo


We left Dyes Inlet for Poulsbo. The plan was to find somewhere nice to potentially spend a few days, as the weather was supposed to worsen. Well, Thursday was splendid.

Just one in four slips at the Port of Poulsbo is “open,” so that boats are distanced. Plus, there just aren’t very many boaters here.

We rinsed the boat off, took down the kayaks, and walked around town a bit. Shops here are in various stages of opening, some still completely shut.

We also found a new way to access Fish Park, at the head of Liberty Bay, as well as a connected park with historical buildings. Had a nice paddle in the afternoon.

To my pleasant surprise, I spotted a creature floating just under the surface of the water next to the boat. I got some photos but none do justice to the delicate fluttering, bubbling, and colors of this thing! Jellyfish? Nudibranch? (Steve Z. what is this?!)
