We tried again for Angel Island after the Sausalito-row-against-the-ebb trip two weeks prior. This time the weather was more favorable. Lunch was enjoyed enroute, and to enhance the adventure and save on the $5 dock fee and paperwork, we tried beaching the Searaven on the little shore at the cove. This turned out to not be a great idea, as there were still some waves in the cove, and I was not willing to pull her up far enough on the beach (as the tide was falling, and I was the only adult and the only one willing to get wet), and didn't want to get stuck. So, we decided to bail. A friendly guy swimming in the icy water of the Cove helped steady the stern as I waded in and carried each of the girls to the boat so that they not get wet.




We have many, many pictures (and videos) of the girls shoes.






Livaboard luxury.

Are we there yet?




After the excitement of the beach landing, we pulled across Raccoon Straight to have a 2nd lunch at Sam's in Tiburon.  This is a great place that has its own dock.






Annika is death on shellfish.


Cheers!
