Codville Revisited

What a difference a day makes.

Last evening, when the winds finally calmed down, the sun came out. It would have been quite nice except for the deer flies. I would call them horse flies except there are no horses around here (actually I could think of some worse things to call them) - they basically made it uninhabitable in the cockpit. So we sat inside, with most of the windows closed and watched DVDs. Not our favorite anchorage.

This morning, we made an early start, paid a brief visit to the nearby Sir Alexander Mackenzie Rock for a little history, then motored back down Dean Channel.

There was not a breath of wind the entire morning and by noon we had motored all the way out of Dean Channel, into Fisher Channel and back to Codville Lagoon, the anchorage that we stayed at just prior to our mechanical problems. When we were here last, we had the entire place to ourselves, except for one late arrival on the 2nd day of our stay. This time we are sharing the back cove with 7 other boats. I guess the cruising season has really started now.

This is a very nice place, and the weather has turned for the better, so we may stay another day and check out the trail to Sagar Lake. Some fellow cruisers have told us is worth a visit.
