We finally put the boat in the water today, and enjoyed a relaxing dinner cruise on the boat. After so many weeks of waiting for a nice stretch of weather – it looks like we’re finally getting one here! So…we decided it would be worth putting the boat in the water for several days to try to take advantage of this weather.
Macy was beyond excited to “go boating!” and we were all curious how Morgan would react, given that she was only 9 months old the last time she had been on the boat. She was fine with the life jacket and was fine with walking down onto the dock and climbing onto the boat. But, once we started moving, Morgan started crying. I could actually sense Gregg tensing up and starting to stress about the prospect that one of his children might not enjoy boating. Morgan cried all the way to Wollochet Bay and was pretty cranky throughout our little sunset dinner, but after an hour or so, she was an ol’ pro! She was climbing all over the place and Macy & Morgan were making their “beds” up in the bow and were covering up & hiding with towels. Then we saw the little fish jumping all over the place (it was sooooo calm out) and a seal came swimming right by the boat. Morgan was giggling and having so much fun….and we were all relieved that the night ended on a happy note, I must admit. Here are some pictures from tonight:
