The Captain tried to anchor at one spot and decided that it wouldn’t work. So all

               proposed  landing  preparations  were  postponed.  Then  the  Captain  decided  to


               reposition the Orion in a different bay so that we could make the scheduled landing.


































               Sure enough, conditions improved both at the anchorage and with the weather. So

               the  Zodiacs  were  lowered  and  the  hikers  proceeded  to  a  wet  landing  on  a  sandy


               beach. Because it was raining and cold, lots of the folks who thought last night that

               they would hike decided not to, but we had the die-hards with us anyway. And it was

               a lovely walk indeed.
