Day 3 Go West!

5:40 wake up call from Barb. "no wind" as predicted. "Let's go!"  Downed a hot drink while taking down the tent. A gruelling early pack up but on the water by 8:30 on a calm morning.
Kathy raring to go


Lets raft up and make a plan

We landed on a small beach on Rosa Island and Darlene had her stove out and whipped up some smoked salmon and caper pitas while Jill made coffee.



 It was a lovely sunny brunch.

We enjoyed the spot but didn't doddle as wind was predicted. We got a taste of it once we rounded Rosa Is and paddled to Island 44.

After we set up camp...


and a kitchen...


Jill, Kathy, Anna and I decided to circumnavigate this little island at high tide.



This boat didn't make it

Hang on and enjoy the ride

I found this sandstone and Kathy found her blue netting 

Jill decked out in kelp



the surf was wild so rock climbing required

 
 







Upon our return to camp we showed off our beach finds, kelp facinators, rocks and shells.
