Furthur docked at the VIP dock in front of the club and who<br />
should appear but a barefoot, Ho Ho Hoing Santa Clause<br />
himself. Santa wandered through the spectator crowd<br />
handing out treats and even an interview with the press.<br />
Next Furthur led the Parade as it passed by the viewing area<br />
one boat at a time, each of the eights boat were decorated<br />
beautifully and full of Christmas cheering parties. The<br />
parade departed the Yacht Club basin and proceeded along<br />
the shore past the Navy ships as the sailors waved and<br />
cheered. Then the parade passed the waterfront park where<br />
many spectators gathered to see the procession. Santa<br />
blared Merry Christmas over a loudspeaker system. The<br />
yachts proceeded to the Light House and back to the Yacht<br />
Club for a gala celebration. A grand time was had by all.<br />
With the Lighted Boat Parade behind us we made our annual<br />
pilgrimage to Puerto Galera. Often a perilous voyage this<br />
time of year, Furthur and our traveling companions on S/V<br />
Snow were blessed with calm seas all the way. Once back in<br />
Puerto Galera we all enjoyed the traditional Christmas Luch<br />
supplied by the Puerto Galera Yacht Club and joined many<br />
old friends for the Holiday.<br />
That infamous bare footed Santa Clause mad another<br />
appearance, dolling out gifts the members had delivered to<br />
