We say goodbye to Nightfall!!!!

Arrived in Bull Harbour safe and sound...a great morning on the water.



When Jim and Peg were in Port McNeil Jim cut his foot and it does not seem to be healing so they have decided to go back...we will all miss them....it truly has been a pleasure boating with you Nightfall!!!!!!!!! Keep in touch...
Peg was so kind as to give us the recipe of the birthday cake she made for Howard....this is a keeper everyone....



We walked onto the Island (Hope Island) today to take a look at the beach that is open to Queen Charlotte Sound wow, what a beach...it is called Roller Beach, lots of round smooth rocks. The sound is mesmerizing!!!!



Found out that Howard once maintained the coast guard communications on the Island....Howard shared some of the local history with us. The Island is owned by a First Nations group and they charge a small fee to access the Island but Howard charmed them to the point that they let us walk on for free. Two men look after the Island and they told us that a great white shark has been around killing seals..some tourists saw this happening...nature!!!!

Tomorrow we leave bright and early to start our journey around the West coast of the Island...we are all excited but a bit anxious at the same time. The weather forecast is calling for 10 to 15 knot winds in the morning...If the weather is good we may continue all the way to Winter Harbour instead of stopping at Sea Otter Cove. 




It is 7:43 pm , the sun is beginning to go down, we have all done our last minute planning, made our lunches and have hugged Jim and Peg...we hope we all have great sleeps and Harvey hears his alarm this time!!!!!!

Good night from Circle the Rock group.....
