Another lay day.

First if you look closely at the picture you will see a mother beluga teaching her baby how to swim. The baby is grey not white. Trish took this picture yesterday just off Tadoussac. We are having a little problem with the wind. Today's forecast is up to 30 knots from the southwest. We cannot go up stream against the ebb tide thus must be on the floor tide. The flood tide would run right into the strong wind. The two opposing forces would fight and the result is what they call square waves. These are very nasty and unpleasant. The flood tide is around 2:00 this afternoon, so we will have a look then but it looks as if we are staying at Cap a L'Aigle for a couple of days.
