Today was sunny and warm, in contrast to yesterday, when it was completely overcast, cool, and damp, with occasional showers.
Roy slept all morning, thank goodness. After lunch of chicken soup and fruit salad, he felt well enough to go for a walk. His chest is very sore, and he's nearly lost his voice, but he's coughing less.
We walked past the Coast Guard station and across the rickety old wooden bridge we paddled under yesterday. Found the remains of an abandoned RV park and some delicious blackberries.
Returned to the village to visit the museum, but it was closed, so we walked along the beach. I took of my shoes and socks and waded. The water wasn't any colder than it is in California. Some kids were playing in the surf, and a few guys were surfing. The view was magnificent. The air was so clear, we could see all the way out past the far buoy. There was a tall dead tree on a hill with an eagle's nest on its top.
In the calm of evening, we turned the boat around so we can get out any time we want to.
