Formerly MV Jolly Mon – The assorted ramblings of an owner of an old boat…
The fourth episode brings the exciting conclusion to my Cruising Desolation Sound series. In this episode, our little flotilla visits Tribune Bay at Hornby Island before turning toward home.
I really enjoyed shooting and creating this video series showing highlights from an absolutely wonderful trip. The videos show only a glimpse into the good times with good friends. I hope you enjoyed following along.
In the third episode of my Cruising Desolation Sound series, we set out to look for a new anchorage and make some friends along the way. We live the “resort life” at Gorge Harbour for a day before returning to anchor at Tenados Bay. As the trip begins to wind down, we start toward home… I hope you’ve enjoyed these videos – stay tuned as Episode 4 is just around the corner!
In the second episode in my Cruising Desolation Sound series, our little flotilla moves on to Grace Harbor and Squirrel Cove, before heading for one of my favorite anchorages – Pendrell Sound.
I hope you enjoy this video, and stay tuned for Episode 3!

I’ve decided to try something new… The idea isn’t new – it’s something I’ve wanted to do for a long time. Combine a few of my skills: story telling and photography, with a little technology to create some short, hopefully enjoyable videos.
In addition to my own content, I’ll link to other YouTubers’ content that helps fuel my daydreams of adventure. They’ve inspired me, and perhaps my videos can help inspire someone else to get out and do the things they love, or experience something new.
So, check it out! See the channel trailer below, or visit my YouTube Channel for more!
When I left for my trip, I had intended to keep up on blog entries. Not only would it be an opportunity to keep the folks at home up to date, but would allow me the chance to reflect on things I had seen and done while traveling. Well, it didn’t happen. I was simply too busy, always on the move it seemed, and at the end of the day the desire to just rest prevailed. Now that I’ve been home for well over a month now, I’m finally getting around to pulling it all together.
I fit a lot in to 2 1/2 weeks, and covered a lot of ground. In my previous post I shared my stay in Iceland, and I’ll include the rest of the trip in this one. I’ll apologize that this post is a bit long.
May 7 & 8 – Copenhagen, Denmark
I was up early to catch a 4:30 am shuttle to the airport, and a morning flight to Copehagen. On arrival at Copenhagen, the airport was packed – the city is host to the Eurovison Song Contest, which is bringing many visitors along with it. Prior to making my travel arrangements, I’m not sure I had ever heard of Eurovision, but I quickly figured out it was a pretty big deal.
After a short train ride, I arrived at Copehagen’s Central Station, and had just a short walk to my hotel, the Hotel Cabinn City. My room was small, simple, and spotless. It reminded me of a efficient ship’s cabin, which seems to be the concept for the hotel.
I didn’t come on this trip to sit in a hotel room, so after dropping my bags and settling in, I set out to see what I could see. Continue reading “Traveling Scandinavia”
