My superpower...

...is not my ability to avoid nausea. Least of all on an anchored boat in the ocean. In true form, I lasted at most two hours before waving the white flag and asking to be returned to shore. It's so pretty out there and I love boats, but even though it was "as calm as it gets", it wasn't calm enough for me. I've never actually thrown up from seasickness, but I've sure felt like it. Today 4 more halibut were caught, and a smaller one thrown back. Our cooler will be full...

We also returned to the same bear spot from two nights ago and saw the same mother and two cubs as well as another shy bear that peeked out from the bush, but was too timid to cross the road with people around. But he looked BIG. Maybe tomorrow. 

We also hope to hike Barometer Mountain tomorrow, weather permitting. 

Bear count = 4
Eagle count = 5
Seal count = 2
Otter count = 1
Sea lion count = maybe 10
Puffin count = too many to count
Fox count = 3
Whale count = 0,  but we heard two spouting on the water today
