The younger two also enjoyed getting out on deck and were fearless about climbing around - which made me nervous. But they have learned to always keep one hand firmly holding onto the boat, and always wear their life jackets. Cora waved and called to the sea lions, but they didn't pay her much attention.
This massive Stellar Sea Lion acted like the king of the dock. When we returned home the little girls pretended to be sea lions and barked just like them. They also decided that Nana was a rock that the sea lions liked to climb and we had great fun playing on the floor.
The boat ride home was smoother than the one going out, and beautiful Mount Baker shimmered white and blue in the distance.
I'm sitting in the living room this evening composing this post and I'm afraid the chair seems to be going back and forth as if I were on the boat. This often happens to me after a lengthy boat ride, and it can take a day or two for things to settle down.
Sunny clear days are in the forecast for the next few days. We have to make the most of them while we can.


Bonjour, merci pour vos articles qui accompagnent mon petit déjeuner avec plaisir. Bonne journée
ReplyDeleteThat will make a day of memories for all of you. Fabulous photograph at the end. Thank you
ReplyDeleteI am glad you could enjoy your boat trip with your grandchildren. Mine were on a boat trip on a Loch in Scotland yesterday. I always feel dizzy when we come back from a cruise for some days , but the worst way when we crossed to Jersey in a storm on a smaller boat it was terrible !😞
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy your boating adventures and this one especially. Time with the grands on the boat…priceless.
ReplyDeleteHope the rocking has subsided by now. :) What a fun outing with the young ones!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful trip with your grandchildren although I share your anxiety too about how fearless small children can be. Hopefully all calm now and the rocking has stopped:)
