Left Jones Headed for Port Angeles
 |
| Leaving Jones Island and into the fog. |
Untied from the mooring buoy at Jones Island. Left the island with some fog that became thicker by the minute. Our fog horn system automatically sent off its blaring honks every 10 mins to let others know that we were coming in the fog. Good to know these safety features Jeff installed were working.

| The girls are happy to be at the bow watching the waves. It is actually quite hypnotizing. |

| The captain looks content with clear skies. Doesn’t he? |
Sophia says the whole trip would be boring without Cutip. Let’s just say that there is a bit of commotion over Cutip between the girls.
It felt as though we covered great distance today. We headed into the Port Angeles Marina with a cross wind breeze that made it difficult to get into our assigned slip. After several attempts and entertaining a few bystanders, we decided to leave the slip for an easier port side tie on the E dock with the big boys, mega yachts like Westport and Nordhaven. Port Angeles happens to be where Westports are built and are often moored at the marina. PA, as the locals call it, is also a major stopping point for great big oil tankers.
