Going through the channel

 

A bumpy ride

 

Shallow banks, but deep entrance

 

The waves of the Pacific

 

The Marina followed us

Here she comes

 

Eddy and Calista worked on the Marina as florists some years back

 

A monument

 

Another great sunset

 

Dramatic, thanks to the clouds

 

Dipping fast

 

Almost gone

 

That's all folks

 

The after sky

 

Most onlookers have left

 

Full moon is Satruday

 

The bulbs blooming in our room

 

Growing daily
