Port Hadlock Marina

After the air trip to Seattle, ferry to

Bainbridge Island, and Toyoto to

Port Hadlock, we boarded

Morning Watch to begin our lovely trip.

Aboard Morning Watch

Waiting out the fog
Port Hadlock Bay
The fog reluctantly lifted barely in time for us to make our getaway to Victoria before the tide, not so reluctant to ebb, might have grounded us.
Ira made sure Pepper felt loved and had a comfortable place to enjoy the trip.

Carolyne and I were also made to feel like really special guests with an offer for us to use the luxurious master state room as our anniversary present.

Thanks, so much!
Victoria Harbour

VICTORIA, BC

There are no pictures from the crossing of Juan De Fuca Strait as I was holding the bucket for Carolyne. We tied up to a public dock in Victoria Harbour and really enjoyed the weather.
Morning Watch
We relaxed most of the time, sunning on the deck and walking around town.
Sometime it was cool enough that we went into the cabin to reflect on the day or plan the next activity.

We did get out to shop for marine supplies, take in some culture at the Provential Museum, walk the dog, and have a most delightful dinner at the Il Terrazzo Ristorante, highly recommended!

Having our way with Victoria, it was time to head back home. Ira and I left Patty & Carolyne to ride the ferry, so Carolyne wouldn't have to face the Juan De Fuca Strait again. You see us leaving on the left. As a result, Ira and I missed the Sunday morning ferry ballet which you see on the right.

Seattle across the Sound.
Ira & I returned to Port Hadlock where we picked up the car & proceeded to Port Angeles to collect the girls. We all returned to Port Hadlock where we separated from Patty, who took the car back to Bainbridge Is. while Ira, Carolyne & I had a wonderful cruse to the same destination, home.
