WILSONS GUIDE TO AVALON same time, flying under the beams of the searchlight; flashes of the most brilliantsilver hurtling through the air. Sometimes a misguided fish will fly straight forthe searchlight and arrive in the boat in the midst of the passengers, and on sometrips dozens have been caught in this manner. The whole trip is weird and extraordinary to the last degree. The searchlightplaying upon the steep mountain sides, arousing the seals from their sleep atSeal Rocks, lighting up the waters on every side is an experience which everyonewho visits Avalon should make a point of recording in their memory. It is anentirely new sensation as this trip was only commenced in the summer of 1912.We hear that an even larger and more powerful boat will be ready in the summerof 1913, which will make the circuit of the Island in half a day. Swimming The water in Avalon harbor is never very cold, but of course it is muchwarmer in summer than in winter; the temperature of the water in winter
