First off I would like to revert a little to last week when we traveled up Baie Fine. Eagle One took some photos of Perelandra which are really outstanding. You seldom get photos of your own boat underway and this is really a treat. And you couldn't stage the background any better if you wanted to, eh?

The day was wonderfully clear and calm. Eagle One must head west to drop off Kay and arrange for travel home for a family reunion (and lobster) and great fun. So they were off at 0700. Sorry to see them go. Funny to have them ahead of us as we were looking for them to catch up with us for so long. Off they go and look at that clear sky.

Faye and I decided to hike to the overlook that she and Kris and Kay did yesterday.
In the area around the bay they have constructed this very long boardwalk system. It was fun to walk as some of it goes over wetland areas. The even have some great overlooks.

Not sure if a better profile was intended, but it was fine walking over it.

The hike up to the overlook was sure worth it - trust from the photos below you agree

And for today's "i Spy" can you see our boat?

After our hike and a grocery store stop, we headed out and went Northeast to Benjamin South Island.
A very nice spot.

And we had it all to ourselves - ah not really. As you can see from this angle we are sharing our spot with about 25 off our closest boating buddies. But it is a wonderful spot.
