little much for me...
We anchored outside of Cowichan Bay (before the
village)Tranquil night.
Shower on deck in the morning sun.
Crab trap= 1 crab (too small)thrown back
Going to anchor in the Bay.
Visit the beautiful little village of Cowichan Bay.

Afternoon going down the Koksilah River
in the dinghy.
