Espresso and Otters

Not long ago a friend asked what comforts I miss when Dean and I are sailing.  Espresso.  That's the real answer.  A really good latte first thing in the morning is hard to replace even with the best beans and french press.

In Port Townsend they have a beautiful Wooden Boat Chandlery next to the marina and the cafe in the Chandlery makes a great latte.  We went twice this morning, thank you.  On the walk back to the boat Dean spotted these guys.

This family of  five otters seemed intrigued by Dean and his camera. 

This guy popped up in the water right next to where Dean was taking photos.

He (or she) was intrigued by the shutter clicks.

They were in and out of the water and up and down the docks.  Even entering several of the boats parked nearby.

The family of otters are known as Kukla, Fran and Ollie but this year there are two new little ones making a family of five.
