Saturday we spent the morning getting a few groceries and last minute things from around Sidney. We also tried to use the "free" internet access from a local restaurant (we bought coffee so we'd be "customers," because only customers get free internet access). Unfortunately after buying coffee they told us that the internet access wasn't working! On top of that when we returned to the boat we found that the tide was so low that we were aground in the slip and unable to move. The result was I washed the boat and Linda went and took a shower. Finally around 1 PM (check out time was 11 AM) we were able to pull out of the slip and make our way out into open water. We ended up having a wonderful sail to a place called Montague Harbor. The only problem is there are about 100 boats anchored here with us. Looks just like Hilton Fireworks in the Delta!
Today we went a short eight miles to an anchorage called Princess Cove at Wallace Island Marine Park. It's a little narrow cut big enough for just a few boats. There are still several boats here. One thing's for sure, we're seeing many more boats out than when we were here last time!
