Dinghy Dock - May 4, 2011

With the organizers there on time this week, we got off to a flying start and arrived at Nanaimo in good time for the special sailing of the ferry the Dinghy Dock laid on for us.



The 10 minute voyage to the floating pub seemed to go in a flash - seemed like just a few minutes!.




We spent some time looking at the stylish ornamentation.


This was before lunch!


After lunch we looked around the dock or went up to Protection Island - land of golf buggies and place names from Treasure Island. It was fantastic!




We all arrived safely back at Nanaimo for the journey home.


A quick stop at...
 for coffee and/ or ice cream or coffee with ice cream in it (in some cases) on the drive back to the centre rounded off a really enjoyable trip.
