Deep Cove Chalet

04 May 2017 | Deep Cove

We went to a spectacular lunch spot called the Deep Cove Chalet located in, appropriately, Deep Cove! It is French fine dining and while we were not there for dinner, the lunch was very good. I haven't had pate` for quite a while and it along with the rest of the meal will make us want to come back; although when that will be is anyone's guess.

We had planned on seeing several recommended places and this certainly was one of the best we will hit along the way.

Taking the dinghy in from the anchored boat was neat. No wind or waves to speak of, so we wore our big, Alaska rubber boots to be able to land the dinghy on the beach as there was no dock. Changing into dining shoes got us a couple of looks and a laugh from the staff who see this occurrence way more frequently during the mid-summer season.

Hiked to an abandoned hotel and saw Roseate Spoonbills in the lagoon. Exciting ride in the dingy - grounded a couple times and then blasted through the standing wave at the river bar

Getting the boat ready to be "on the hard" for 6 months. A big, hot job.
