It was our intention to go to Angel Island for a picnic, but the lack of wind slowed our progress. That, and the very strong ebb tide (which was running at about 5 kts through the Golden Gate), which was pulling it very much in the wrong direction. A few teasing breezes tempted us to try sailing, but it was no-go. Still, a warm and lovely day out on the water! It is weird here in Northern California, on the water winter months can be much warmer than summer.



This powerboater thought he was in Tiburon.  Really, we along the shore of Sausalito.
