Bois Bubert Island 8/22
N 44• 20.256' W 68• 03.556'
My reward for making it around Petit Manan point in the fog and going wide around breakers along the point and ledges was seeing two seals jumping where there was a school of fish at the surface

Seawall campground 8/19
Some blips in the day and some serendipity. Saw two dolphins, an eagle and loons. Slow start waiting out rumbling thunderstorm, then hours waiting out fog on placencia island next to a no camping sign I thought I'd have to ignore, then it lifted and I made it to seawall late and have crashed tom's friends' campsite

Pond island 8/18
N 44• 13.434' W 68• 28.216'
Had to adjust my plan again when fog hadn't lifted by noon but this way I got to see Lazygut Thrumcaps (though tide was too high to stop for lunch) and cross Eggemogin reach (fog had cleared by time I got there) both names are among my favorites.
This campsite is deet worthy

Russ Island 8/17
Stayed here as a base camp planning a day trip to isle au haut, but fog got thick on my way there. Paddled and poked around Wreck Island for 2+ hrs hoping it would lift, but I made the cautious choice to head back because even as it was lifting it could have come back in (which it did) and I would have been stuck out there. I'll have to make another trip for isle au haut. Made trip to kayak outfitter/campground for some recharge, resupply and takeout instead.
Tonight fog is so thick, it's completely still sometimes between mosquito buzzing
