Sarah (in a rush)
This is written in a massive hurry against my flattening laptop battery in a wifi cafe. (Which has taken days to find ...) But we've had a good few days, doing the tourist thing around the open-topped buses. We're coming back next July so we will go the full mile then and visit all the sites.
In the meantime, this is Frank Gehry's gold fish overlooking Port Olimpic. It's one of that marinas few good points: mostly it's an barren site of nightclubs and chain restaurants. It's good a very good chandlery though, one of the best we've seen.
We're off tomorrow to points North, hoping to get to France about this time next week via various anchorages and scenic spots, so it may be a few days before the next post.
