Cruise aboard MV "Loki"

Motoring north from the San Juan Islands, our old Willard Trawler "Loki" took us into the Canadian Gulf Islands. We decided to simply loaf and relax among those inviting islands.
Clearing Customs in Bedwell Hbr, we lived the good life, rowing about & enjoying good pub food. Having an easy moorage, we stayed 2 nights before risking our hides going under a bridge with plenty of air overhead and barely enough water over the rocks. Whew! Off to other harbors ~ to replenish our galley, empty because of border
restrictions of nothing fresh & only one bottle of wine.
In Winter Cove on Saturna Isl, we hiked & peeped @ the Straits of Georgia - the Big Bugaboo when crossing, lay deceptively calm and inviting. After anchoring/staying in several lovely bays & lapping up the quiet, we motored an hour away to our fav town, Ganges on Salt Spring Isl. Running out of Coffee, Wine & Chocolate made 3 trips back imperative. Not to mention great cafes & sm town delights. Back to our hoard of books and cool breezes to delight in the Solar Panels that Tom rigged up, so dropping anchor required no engine for electricity.
