The following day we exited again onto the east coast through a passage
called Oofunakoshi. This time, we had to face the current with a some
sprightly paddle strokes and a couple ferry glides back and forth across
the narrow strait. Exiting into the open sea rather suddenly, we turned
south again. Nearing the completion of our journey, the coastline again took
on the wave-swept, rocky aspect we noticed at dawn of our first day. The
weather today was clear and bright with a 18-knot north-west wind. Our great
luck with the weather was complete; buffeted by occasional gusts of wind we
tried to imagine what the west coast looked like at that same moment.
