Sidney, British Columbia

Ed and I spent May and June in Port Sidney Marina.  We took to boat out daily to practice sailing.  Some days were good and some, not so good!

Docking was quite the challenge.  Without the help of our new friends, Robin and Jim, who were waiting for us every day to catch lines; we would have been in quite a few tough spots.  They taught us so much.


Happy at the helm....calm waters.  It will take some time for me not to panic.  "Yikes"

We visited different Marinas; we came across quite an array of interesting boats and people. Not at all like RVing.

A swan and her ducklings were curious.  After realizing we had no food, she swam off.

Ed and I went for a motor cruise outside the Marina one evening.  The wind was calm and the water was glass.

The view from the water is amazing.  Every Island could tell a different story.
