It's been way too cold in Colonial Beach to get on the water so we had to go to Thailand to get warm. Took a boat ride on the Chao Phraya River that runs through the middle of Bangkok. Went down the river and into the canals where we passed homes, slums, and gorgeous temples. Very busy river.

Went out on a cruise of the Cape Town harbor on a pirate ship. Nice out. Glad to be far away from the frigid temps of home

Stuck on the roof!
Friends invited us to boat to Machodoc Creek Cafe for lunch on their power boat. Great, as the Kiwi Kruzer had been put away for the winter. Fabulous lunch over water, chilly ride but not bad. Great time. We returned to their house to discover their dog had chewed thru an upstairs screened window that had been left open and was stuck on their roof. Of course I had to get a picture.

We motored the pontoon boat to the Harbor View Marina when the boat will be taken out, winterized and stored for the winter. It's been a fun summer.

Took the Kiwi Kruzer out for an extended trip on the Potomac. One of the last warmish days on the water. Went to Horsehead Cliffs and then down to the Colonial Beach shoreline. Water was very calm and smooth. Practically no one else out on the water in the late afternoon. Beautiful out.

Potomac Fall day
Warm enough to wear shorts and a tee shirt. Went with Alan out on his Precision sailboat around the creek and into the Potomac where the wind immediately died. Alan let me sail for a while. Ran into friends out on paddleboards who took our pic. Our days on the water are soon coming to an end, sniff.

Alan at the helm with the bikes.
Saw a bald headed eagle en route.
Decided to do a fun adventure by taking the bikes via the pontoon boat to Cobb island, and biked around the island for 10 miles. Really fun way to celebrate my 100th day on the water. Had lunch at Capt John's then back home on the boat.

Bipped around the creek to check out a few more marshes to explore but the tide was too low to really get into them. Alan kayaked with me, first time in ages.
