Installation Weekend 2

I have to say that I had the most satisfactory weekend. However I had to wait it. On Wednesday and Thursday I set myself for a nap in my car travel compartment before my crew arrived in my lair on land from their daily food hunting routine. They did not get my point until Friday as we drove to the vessel. I actually have enjoyed the car travel to marina - it happens during afternoon when I mostly nap anyway and I like to sleep while traveling in the car.

On Friday when we arrived the the boat the sun set quite soon and it was dark. This is new to me: being onboard, its dark and my crew is awake. We stayed with the first mate on the deck quite some time and were enjoying exiting feeling of the warm gusty wind, all the smells coming with its and the harbor lights reflecting from the water movement.

Saturday morning started with the installation excitement - the captain brought some cables to the breakfast table with him, so excited he was. My crew may sit for two hours for the weekend breakfast but this time the breakfast was enjoyed in remarkably fast manner. As the captain moved on the second phase of the radar installation me and the first mate continued like last weekend - our helping paws were available as needed.

As the installation was completed late afternoon I ordered... er, kindly noted to the crew that the wind had reached speed suitable for comfortable seagoing and the sky was remarkably blue and bright so maybe sailing might be a nice option to choose for an activity. So we left and tacked to Tankar, the lovely island with lighthouse. The night become remarkable - first there were a lot birds to observe and when it become dark the sky was really black creating wonderful backdrop for the planets and stars. I stayed extended periods on the deck admiring the nature's activities.

We were treated with lovely weather on Sunday too. Before we sailed back to the harbor in a brisk wind I started to feel like a bit celebrity. My outing - what a bird show may I state - on the deck were observed by fellow sailors and I got a lot of attention - I was curious about the new people but at the same time a bit shy.

Ok, even I am so exited about the weekends I will start working the posts on Huvön...

I may look fluffy but I predate an the insect on the pillow...
