A late-ish morning doing stuff on the computer - we paid for 24 hours of a WiFi hotspot here. Turns out it was probably not worth it. Today was errands and just walking around and soaking in Petersburg. We didn't really need to, but decided to do a bit of laundry at the laundromat. On the way up the ramp, we ran into Carmine from "Sleepless" who we had met on Stella Maris in Wrangell. It turns out he had damaged his dinghy after leaving here, so had returned to get it repaired. He was certainly going to need a dingy for the rest of the trip! Talked to some folks at the laundromat from M/V Cheryl Lynn who were with us in Wrangell and who also came up here yesterday. Fairly nice laundromat.

Then down the street to a Cafe for lunch. We had a cranky owner/waitress and absolutely wonderful smoked salmon chowder and cinnamon roll bread pudding! Then, along to the Java Hus for a coffee, but also to check out and use their WiFi. We were able to download some Netflix shows there! We saw a sign at the laundromat for a hair salon, so we walked to the courthouse building and Greg got a haircut. We continued walking down towards the South Harbor to see the town. Ran into Carmine there again and had a chat. Then walked up to the grocery store which is a bit of a hike. But the "mall" there is quite nice and the grocery store is fabulous.



Then a walk back to the boat for dinner. Some of our netflix shows are expiring (after 30 days) so we needed to watch a few of them before they did. Relaxing evening and a nice dinner onboard. We probably won't have cell/internet for awhile so no Blog updates either.
