Great day!  Great company too! Was mostly sunny, but had a few fog patches to liven things up a bit

 

"According  to the Radar we should be getting close to the Island now"

 

We arrive at Pelican Harbor, a favorite place.   Find it calm, warm, and almost empty.   Only three vessels here today

 

 

    

 

Manuel and Marilyn are coping with the stress well

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Delores appears to be handling the situation well too!

 

 

 

 

 

Here they are!   "The dirty half dozen"

Dennis, Delores, John, Marilyn, Kit, and Manuel 

(you can barely see Jim behind the camera)

 

 

 

 

Marilyn "chills" for a few

 

 

 

 

 

                   Another "rare" photo of the famous Arch rock at Anacapa Island

 

The Breakwall entrance to our Harbor, Anacapa Island can be seen in the distance

 

 

 

 

 

The South Jetty, replete with Daymarker and Foghorn

 

 

 

 

 

 

The North Jetty stands guard

 

 

 

 

Silver Strand Beachfront, just to starboard of the Harbor entrance

 

 

 

 

 

A few Pelicans hanging out in the back Harbor

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So good to see these birds. 20 years ago they were near extinction here

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

OK, what's this in the water?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Appears to be a gathering of sorts

 

 

 

 

 

 

Some "people" just know how to have fun!

These seals are waving like the Queen as we idle past them

Was a great day, can't wait till next time
