Back in civilization again.
Yesterday we decided to make the run across Queen Charlotte Strait to Port Hardy. After our experience with Johnstone Strait, we were prepared this time; everything was thoroughly battened down and we had our rough weather gear on, ready for a challenging day of sailing in the open strait.
One of the startling sights here has been the huge eagles (think large turkeys with wings), that like to perch on any high object and stare at you like you are some kind of tasty rodent - very intimidating!
This poor boat next door has the honor of hosting a full-time resident at the top of his mast, basically destroying any of the equipment that was up there. We are right next to him and are only hoping the beast is not eyeing our mast as a slightly better vantage point.
So far, so good.
Since we have a decent internet connection here, I will go back and add some pictures to the previous posts, just in case you can't visualize everything from my elaborate descriptions.
