Fourth of July

We celebrated Independence Day (Andy's first as a citizen) with Normelena, Fabian, Thai, Kim, Brianna, Nichole and our hosts, Mr and Mrs Rios on the good ship Enamorado.













We set out from Oakland's Jack London Square and sailed to Angel Island.
The sea was a little rough half way across and we almost lost the dinghy. Once at Angel Island, Thai rowed off in the dinghy to secure the boat and get our day license.


As darkness was falling, we headed in the direction of the San Francisco Waterfront.
The sights and sounds of the fireworks over the slate black rolling waters made for a unique experience. Certainly the best fireworks experience we have ever had.
