Yesterday, Monday July 2nd ,was a beautiful, sunny day despite the gloomy weather forecast. We sat outside for a while in the late afternoon and it was gorgeous right up till dark . Well, twilight, I went to bed at 11;30 and it still wasn’t quite dark then and Vivian tells me that it was daylight at 4:15 this morning again. Today is not so nice, lots of cloud cover , but at least it isn’t raining.
Haven’t done much over the weekend, our friends, Bob and Jack on “Companionship”, whom we have met at various harbours and anchorages along the way, have a rental car, and Bob offered to take us shopping. A trip to Costco was hurriedly planned and executed and we are now in no danger of starving for another month or two. At least.

| Serious dive boat |

| Mega Yachts "Legacy" and "Ice Bear" both around 165 feet. Mega Yacht owners are typically shy about being identified but "Ice Bear" is reputedly owned by "a Nebraska billionaire" and we all know there's only one of those. |

| Fishing tender or packer, they receive the catch from the fishing boats out on the fishing grounds and transport it to the cannery |
This is an interesting harbour with all the fishing boats, tour boats and now even mega yachts coming and going there is always something to see.

After great difficulty I managed to speak to a real human at Raymarine and she assured me that my unit was repaired and in their shipping department to go out today although she couldn’t give me a Fedex tracking number. Tomorrow is the Independence day holiday and Alaska is a long way from New Hampshire so I am still not sure when we can expect to see it here. Hopefully no later than Friday so we can leave on the weekend.
