Fox Island area

We went through very narrow channels to finally get to the perfect albeit smallest anchorage we have ever been to. Almost can jump to shore...since we are expecting wind changes the anchor had to be perfectly centered...also our gps charts were not working :)

Bad River

Had fun going up and down these rapids in the dinghy. Kids could not stop smiling.

Deadend Cove

Rebeca and Alex floated away...Eric rescued them by swimming to them (it is a dead end cove).

Yesterday we got bit by many bees...Rebeca's lips, ears got swollen...then she got hives all over body. Called emergency (we were at least 3 hours away from anything). After an hour she was singing and dancing.
