		<description><![CDATA[It was another 1000 departure on this, our last morning together at sea. Some folks stayed on their boats for breakfast while others spread out into town visiting the various good eateries and coffee shops. No matter where one chose to spend their early morning, it was clear that this was going to be a ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The cafés and bakeries in Chemainus were busy this morning with the influx of our flotilla participants! Our 1000 departure gave us plenty of time to enjoy breakfast in town or to have a leisurely morning on the boats. We threw off the lines and made our way towards Friday Harbor. The sun was shining ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The wind really picked up sometime in the early morning. By the time we were all out of bed, it was blowing close to 15 knots in the marina. We were all very glad that we had made it across the Straits of Georgia yesterday. We imagined that if it was blowing this much in ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We left Grace Harbour this morning just as the sun was beginning to rise. We had just enough light to see by as we headed out of the cove. Soon the sky was bright with all sorts of beautiful pinkish hues surrounding the mountain tops. A gorgeous morning indeed! We saw lots of surf scoters ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It was another short day out on the water today. We left Prideaux Haven under sunny skies. The views of Mt. Denman were quite striking with big puffy cumulus clouds surrounding it. Captain Brian took us through a narrow passage that took us between Otter Island and the mainland. It was a beautiful spot, but ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We traveled all of ten miles today from the Homfray Lodge to the jewel of Desolation Sound, Prideaux Haven. We were all a bit reluctant to leave the lodge, as the bothers had been so hospitable and it was such a comfortable place to spend our time. But off we went, casting off the lines ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It was a luxurious 1000 departure this morning from Squirrel Cove, as we only had 24 miles to go to get to Homfray Lodge. Given the extra time, we decided to see some of the sites in Desolation Sound on the way. We poked our noses into Refuge Cove and marveled at the sizes of ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We left Egmont under partially clouded skies and headed out Jervis Inlet towards Malaspina Straits. We could see some white caps in the straits and decided to be sure our windows were closed and dogged down and valuables cleared off the counter tops just in case. But these precautionary measures turned out to be unnecessary, as we ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It was bound to happen sooner or later; we had our first bit of rain today. We had already gotten off the dock at Princess Louisa and back out Malibu Rapids before it hit. This was fortunate, as it was nice to enjoy the tall rounded peaks once more before the cloud level came down ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ahhh…lay days in Princess Louisa Inlet are always so relaxing. Even for those of us who departed at 0900 for the hike to the trapper’s cabin. The hike to the cabin is more of a climb than a hike, as we spend a lot of time grabbing for handholds and climbing over rocks. It is ...]]></description>
