Highlights

Waited in line for 1.5 hrs for Crater Lake Boat Tour tickets, for noon departure

Hiked 1.1 miles down to the dock and seemed like 11 miles up. Trail marked strenuous..

Great trip all around shoreline

Saw Phantom Rock, Castle Rock, Pumice Rock, Wine Glass, and all the beautiful coves

All in a setting of absolutely BLUE water

Hiking back up there were 12%!g(MISSING)rades and difficult for the old folks

We all got sunburned - PawPaw the most

Ate at Annie's Creek at 3:00PM, we were starved and dehydrated

Back to the campsite and a nice fire, showers and Mexican Train

In the morning we pull out for the Pacific Ocean

Cool!
You are so lucky to have time to take the boat ride! What a luxury. You'll never forget that! What's a Mexican Train?
