After our trip up Lynn Canal and back, we met up with friends/flotilla folks Ralph and Jeanette (on Rubicon) and Scott (on Impulse) over in Swanson Harbor (where Lynn Canal, Chatham Strait, and Icy Strait all converge).

We all got space on the dock and had a nice visit. In the morning, we cruised over to Flynn Cove for one night (Ralph and Jeanette caught a halibut!) and then split up again as Rubicon headed for Glacier Bay, and Impulse and Airship went into Hoonah where we stayed two nights.

We took a walk up to the market for some produce (slim pickings on this particular day), but it was nice to stretch our legs and see a bit of town.
