Got to take a lovely rec boating trip on a weekday evening a couple weeks ago. A group of about five of us set out hoping to land and explore on foot around a couple of islands most of us hadn't been to yet (Lipps and Delaca). But the seas a bit away from station were WAY more swelly than they were on our little corner of rocks, and it didn't seem like we could easily make a safe landing and we had to settle for circumnavigating both islands and just enjoying the view. Which was great in its own way.
Then we zoomed over to a different area (along the way passing what is left of the Old Faithful iceberg, pictured in a previous post, which turtled a couple weeks ago so looks unrecognizable)...
...and eventually landed at an area called Point 8. Some very watchful elephant seals were guarding the rocks we landed on but graciously allowed us to pass.
And we had a BEAUTIFUL walk to a bunch of viewpoints I hadn't seen before.
One of those nights when all I can think is how lucky I am to be here!
