Longbranch Bay or Bust, Day2, Stardate May 23 2009

Up and about by 8am and soon as we set sail we spot the Vashon Ferry. Since we were being lazy we missed sunrise.

Wow!!!,... this was the highligt of the day, 2 Orca Whales spotted on Shearwaters Portside by 1st Mate on west side of Vashon Island.
Coming up on Tacoma Narrows. We can see Bridge Towers in the Distance as be pass Gig Harbor.







Tacoma Narrows fully in view, near 12 noon.












Narrows Bridge approaching.










We were hoping the mast cleared the Bridge.



Sailing between Anderson Island and McNeil Island we reach our destination, Longbranch Bay. A peaceful place with several boats already tied up together.






Looking out of Longbranch Bay towards Anderson Island we anchor for the night.

Sunset is qute a sight. Captian and 1st Mate play a round of Dummy Rummy. Captain demonstrates his shrewdness by beaten the pance off 1st Mate.
