We passed this BC Ferry today as we were heading north. This is why we have our radar on all the time because you never know what might sneak up behind you. This actually is kinda small compared to the cruise ships that travel these waters.Today we are in Prince Rupert,about as far north as you can get without actually being in Alaska. Sorry I haven't posted anything for a few days but we have really been out in the boon docks. Saw several more black bears,one in the harbor we stayed in last night. Once again there are three other boats here we have spent time with at some other place in the past few weeks.
We can't believe how nice the weather has been. Two nights ago it was 85 in the boat at 7:30pm. We are seeing some really awesome scenery. The channels are sometimes very narrow and the sides go straight up 3000 feet, and the water is 1700 feet deep. We traveled one and half days without seeing another boat.
Most of the boats here tonight will be going to Alaska in the next few days. This is kind of the jumping off place. Monday morning if the weather report is good, we will head out too. The first day we will go to a place called Foggy Bay, then on to Ketchikan the following day to clear customs back into the USA. This is the last of the open water crossing we have going north. Of course we will need to cross them all again coming back. Keep in touch you guys. Just click on post a comment at the end of these and say hi! Hope everyone is well, Russ, Pat, Maddie
Carol and Neil here. We are home from Hawaii and are missing it already. The weather was great and it really is a paradise. We had a fun trip and did lots of site seeing, and playing in the pool and the ocean.
