Pender Harbour is a really nice area. We stayed at Madeira Wharf and dinghied around the corner to have a drink with the Browns and the Zs at the renowned Grasshopper Pub. (After a very steep hike up a hot and dusty road.) That's what I call "earning my beer."
I found a cool sponge floating by but threw it back in after deciding it was a bit creepy. Was it still alive? Dead?
Nick and Steve donned dive masks to replace a zinc. It was a bit eerie to have them working under the swimstep. It's a good thing though, as our zincs were pretty much nonexistent.
The sunset was gorgeous.
We hit very rough water yesterday. My photo of Coorie Doon does not do justice to the 3 to 5 foot waves and water coming over the top of the boats.
We saw a pod of orcas go by and a couple of ginormous log booms.
We all made it safe and sound but hours of crazy water made us tired and ready for a celebratory beverage at Doc Morgan's at Union Steamship marina.
This marina is very nice...best facilities so far and well kept grounds. Good thing, as we may be staying an extra day because of weather. At least it's cooler!
