Back on board! We are staying on the Mara Beel again for awhile. Yay! After grocery shopping yesterday we went out briefly to practice docking. We had a wind on the port side as we pulled into the dock which made things tricky. It took several attempts, but Mark was able to land eventually. In the process, 7 or 8 onlookers gathered to grab our lines and to encourage us rookies.

Going under the Oregon Street bridge- no need to raise it for us.

We grilled and ate dinner with new friends Clay and Sally who just bought a boat and are docked here as well. I need to snap a picture of them!

Our galley is small but efficient!
