This morning at 9 AM we boarded the Hornblower Cruise Yacht "ENTERTAINER" For a morning brunch cruise in Newport Beach Harbor. The harbor has 6 or 8 islands in it, Balboa Island being the largest. The shores are lined with houses ranging from 38 million and down. There are many yachts and sail boats as well. The house lower picture left was Gene Autreys house. It is now owned by the founder of Yahoo. Mark McGuire had purchased this house before the Yahoo owner but couldn't get voted in so never lived in it. It sets on the smallest island in the harbor. There are maybe a dozen houses on the Island and you have to be voted in to live there. The house just behind this on the north side of the island was owned by Clark Gable. The only way on to this island is by golf cart or boat. We saw Shirley Temples house as well as John Wayne's' House and Yacht. We also saw were Gilligan's Island was filmed. All of these multi million dollar houses and most of them only have a few feet of space between them.
