Chapter Five…Channel Islands Vacation…Boating


We were off at sea daily in Eric and Cherie’s electric boat that they adorningly named “Our Sausalito”. Whether it be breakfast, lunch, dinner, or for hot tea with dessert, each and every day the Kempiak Party of Five had at least one meal on board as we tooted around the Channel canals. Between seeing all the other boats in many sizes and their fun names, the homes and restaurants lined up from end to end, the wildlife, and Pacific, we were fully entertained.

We had a brainstorm the last day and decided to grab a bag of frozen anchovies to feed the seals that same up close to ‘Sausalito’ which was a big hoot for the kids. Mostly the birds benefited from our donations however a seal or two did as well.

{Note to self…grab the frozen treats at the beginning of our adventure!}








Jon wasn’t the only sailor in the family; each kid had their chance at the wheel and often times it was our sweet Cousin Eric showing them the proper technique. No drivers license necessary to sail this ocean blue!
