'Cruising 'round the island on a Sunday afternoon' via the only remaining historic Puget Sound steamship, you will see the shadows of long gone piers that once marked the still viable neighborhoods; listen to the steam whistle that alerted the early travelers to leave home, thus to reach the pier as the incoming vessel nudged in snugly for them to hop aboard and enjoy a relaxed afternoon of Pacific NW beauty, social interaction and munching good food (with cash bar). A great opportunity for island newcomers to get acquainted with their chosen homeland. Limited space for a popular event, so reserve soon at 206-842-2773. A Bainbridge Historical Museum event. Fee: $65, includes food.
