Awoke to dense fog. Around noon, it lifted somewhat but then came in again, thicker than before.
We got in our Royaks and paddled in different directions. Roy went ashore for a while and then went looking for me. I explored all the little coves and ponds and inlets. Went completely around Great Salt Pond. The wind was pretty strong. Saw a small sailboat that had turned turtle, but the two guys managed to right it.
The three marinas are completely packed, and there are docks where cabin cruisers are rafted eight deep. What a mess! The ones closest in won't be able to leave until the outer ones leave. Monday afternoon is going to be chaosville, with all those boats trying to get out the narrow channel at once. Sure glad we don't have to leave then, and I'm glad we're anchored, not docked.
Roy and I met back on the boat around two. Ate lunch and then paddled to a pond close to the little town, so we could buy a few groceries.
There are water-taxis here that take people ashore from their boats for $1.50, so tomorrow we'll take our bikes ashore and ride around.
