Day 4 - Prideaux Haven - Desolation Sound - July 1

Sunset in Prideaux
Happy Canada Day all!
Another 30 degree + day – its almost stifling, no breeze and no clouds. We spent a lot of time running around in the dinghy today just to get a breeze. Went clamming and oystering today and managed to get a nice haul. We will let the clams soak and we will have them in a few days when they have finished spitting out all the sand. The bay has not been crowded, we are surmising that the strong winds in the Vancouver area and Malaspina have kept most of the tourists hiding out until it calms. There is a daily exchange of boats some leaving, some entering and some just through for a day cruise. Around noon most days is when everyone pulls up and leaves to the next bay in Desolation. We are lucky it is early in the season yet and the winds have kept most of the tourists away, otherwise, swimming would be out of the question as it turns into a bit of a cesspool. The water is 70 degrees, nice for swimming and cooling down! We are anchored in the middle of the bay with no stern line and Mike is happy that his Satellite is holding up and we have no TV interruption.
