Free Willy?

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."

Mark Twain

The Keiper Family returned from a week out in the San Juan Islands claiming to us, the staff, to have a "surprise picture." Even though we tried some coaxing, we weren't allowed to see this surprise until a bit later. After much anticipation, we finally received the e-mail from them with this beautiful breeching orca! As far as I know, the whale was not named by the Keipers, but it seems very reminiscent to me of a movie I saw once...

Other guests that have gone out during the month of June have come back with fun pictures of their own. Below you can see Juergen and Brittany enjoy a week with one of our fine (not to brag) instructors, Mike Anderson.

Yes, that is a real starfish on his head!

We are looking forward to seeing Juergen again this fall, in addition to both students, David and Craig (below). All three are returning to enjoy our Pacific Northwest Fall.

Here you can see all the Learn-n-Cruise students, accompanied by instructor, Leslie Senn. David commented, "We learned a lot and had a good time doing it.  Our sail boat was first class and we thought highly of our instructor, Leslie." 

Thank you David! We look forward to seeing you in a couple months for another adventure!
