With the weather looking horribly iffy, I decided to
stay put as the bay seems nicely sheltered, so I took a few walks around Port
Washington and around, allot of trees so photos did not show much, a nice town
with a mix of old and new and all well hidden with green stuff. They designed,
built and flew the flying boats from here, though there is no museum only the
odd pictures and a art piece.

Yesterday (Saturday 8th ) was one I hope
does not get repeated, the forecast 15-20 knot winds started early rising
quickly and staying at 20-35knots gusting to 48 until evening when the wind
shifted from South to North and thankfully died to 1-5 knots, leaving today a
glorious sunny day with only the odd breath of wind, even the yacht races were
abandoned with a number of boats being towed back to shore.
