Day 2 The weatherman is a Liarhead

Sunset from my sisters front porch
Boat basin in Powell River

Another stunning day on our beautiful coast We left Pender Harbour at the crack of 9:00 and cruised at a breakneck speed of 8 knots to Powell River. All of the winds did not materialize nor did the rain. It was a sunny and calm day, so much so we wanted to keep going, but we remembered that we were in no rush. Dinner at family in Powell River tonight...woo hooo no cooking again! My new stove is certainly not getting a good work out.
Mike was estactic to find out we had only used 20 gal. of fuel from Vancouver to Pender Harbour (about a 65 mile run) Today was chore day for Mike, he put his new brake cable on the motorbike and did some minor modifications on our dashboard.

Another Spectacular sunset and a wonderful day.
