Ship's Log:
We have enjoyed a wonderful hot day today, sailing deeper into
Desolation Sound. After weighing anchor and bidding farewell to Tenedos
Bay, we set sail to a fine warm breeze and enjoyed a lovely reach north
to Walsh Cove. The breeze cooperated and drew aft allowing us to sail
nicely all the way to our anchorage. Walsh Cove is cluster of small
islets tucked into a corner of one of the soundīs many long, narrow
inlets and channels. There are tall snowy peaks showing behind the
wooded hills, making a strong contrast to the clear emerald and
turquoise waters of the cove.  The tropical look and feel of the locale
inspired an afternoon spent exploring the islets, swimming to and fro in
the warm water or voyaging by dory.  Everyone is having a great time and
making the most of their experience here. Some have collected oyster
shells and are working at making some jewelery for themselves or secret
friends.
