Bodega Bay

We are in Bodega Bay California just 60 sailing miles from the Golden Gate Bridge. What a nice feeling. We left Eureka after a slight delay waiting for the tide to lift us off the bottom. The conditions were very calm and we ended up motoring for most of the way. After all we experienced, Cape Mendocino was placid and calm. Exactly what it wasn't supposed to be. No complaints though. I was on the first shift for the night watch and had a very pleasant evening. I woke Dale at 12:30 who too had a good
shift. Just prior to turning it over to Brenda at 4:00 am the fog rolled in. She had a more entertaining time. The fog besides making it obviously more difficult to see other boats also deposits a fine mist on everything. Dale took over again at 7:00 am for Brenda, poor thing, who was very cold.
The wind here is very strong right now, we entered the skinny little channel that takes us to the marina in 30 kt head winds. First chance though we will make the final run to San Francisco. There are many interesting birds both in the bays we have been in and on route out at sea.
