Strawberry Island
Camped on Strawberry Island Saturday night (Full Route).
Very low-key, I think the mountains are still way more exciting than islands and the sea. But, it was good to get out of town, take a nap on a moss-covered rock, and drink around a campsite.
It rained all night and all morning as we packed up, but it was sunny again for Sunday's paddling. Almost capsized myself being stupid... saw a scratch on my paddle, turned the handle to look at it, while the blade was in the water, and almost went in. Whoops! Other than that, mostly uneventful. Oh yeah, except getting swamped by a ferry wake the moment we launched, before the skirts were on. D'oh.
