Moved to sixty-six

For the first week of the job we were in the dockyard (having loads of repair work done) which is nothing at all to take pictures of. We were parked right under a freeway so not only was it ugly, it was noisy and dirty too. And there was a parking nazi. But I digress...

We finally moved to a proper marina! Killing two birds with one stone, we did sea trials and moved docking locations in the process. Essentially we got a nice tour of the river on our way out to sea.

Gawked at all of the waterfront properties along the way.

And here we are now. This was the sunset view from the back of the boat as I went to take down the flag tonight. The weather has been beautiful lately. Today's weather was fabulous which made all of the deck work much more bearable. I'm going to interject here that scrubbing decks isn't exactly my most favorite activity, but I can't wait to see all of the places the boat will be while I'm hard at work. As far as deck work not being my favorite thing, I'm glad to say at least I'm not doomed to be stuck in the bowels of the boat forever.

P.S. Sushi for the second night in a row, yay! I've been so exhausted lately, I can't wait to have my first day off. :) I can hardly keep my sentences straight in my head at the moment....
