Day 79: All at sea

As promised, we went down to Kits Point again to watch the Hawaiian Chieftain and the Lady Washington as they set sail for the evening cruise. We got there just as the Lady Washington was pulling away from the dock. We picked a bench and sat down to eat our takeout dinner from Planet Veg as the other ship made ready to leave. She soon puttered away from the dock and ventured out into English Bay to join her sister ship. I took a few more pictures as she glided in front of the Vancouver skyline.

Out in the bay, both ships began unfurling their sails, the crew crawling up the rigging onto the spars. Made for a pretty nice photo :-)
