Back in Poulsbo

02 September 2009 | Ray here...
78 degrees and sunny!
Starrdate 20-09-75....We had a spectacular 6 hour run back from Port Townsend! We caught the tide and saved over four hours of motoring and sailing traveling along at 7-12 knots (through agate pass) but really enjoyed the journey....then to arrive in sunny warm spectacular Poulsbo! It's like Disneyland and Walmart all wrapped in one ('course Sandy hates it!). But we're here...and we're down...and we're in.

Next (after we saw Johnathan) was coffee and cinnamon twists at the bakery, lots of excited conversation (thanks to the 5 pm coffee!)...then it's out to see how the boat's doing. Interesting...there we're hoards and masses around the boat...I'm thinking of selling tickets!

So I need to rest...will update tomorrow...also lots of pictures coming up.
