Europa left the Foss Friday afternoon headed for Gig Harbor. As our favorite free city mooring buoy was taken, we anchored in the harbor and enjoyed margaritas in very decent evening weather.
Saturday morning we headed south through slack tide at the Narrows toward Oro Bay, Anderson Island. As usual, we saw quite a few porpoise in the area just south of the bridges.
The skies got a little darker the further south we got, so after cruising around the bay...irritating a few lounging seals and cormorants for getting too close...we headed north again and back into Gig Harbor...and tied up to our second favorite free city mooring buoy.
As mentioned in previous posts, we really enjoy Oro Bay. However, there really is no where to get off the boat. We think there may be a park, but we can't see a place to access it, and the docks are all private yacht club outposts. So, when the weather isn't great, we find it better to be somewhere we can get off the boat to move around.
Back in GH, a goose swam by, prompting me to text our daughter with our order for Thanksgiving dinner. Her response: "On it!" For those of you who know us, you might also know that our daughter is an exceptionally talented cook. Yum.
Also, for those of you who know me, you might know that I find various arts and crafts theraputic...and fun. Crocheting is something I can easily do on the boat. I found this super easy and practical wine bottle carrier pattern and have been cranking them out. Let me know if you want one. 😊
Yesterday evening the 133 foot Schooner Adventuress entered the harbor.
This morning, after rain overnight, we are enjoying our coffee with some sun breaks.
