Feel'in Ferry Good

We decided to take the Alaska Marine Highway Ferry from Haines, AK to Prince Rupert, British Columbia, Canada.  We left at 11:00 PM on Wednesday and arrived at 2:00 pm on Friday.  The only down side was Lilly had to stay in the RV, which was parked in the hull.  We had stops along the way where we could go get her and take her out, although, a few of them did come in the middle of the night.  We took turns on those.  It was a really nice change of pace from driving.  We saw about 40 whales, many seals and some beautiful scenery.  My only problem was that the vibration from the ship caused my tooth infection to throb, but other than that, we really enjoyed it.  After getting off the ferry, we decided to "power drive" to Vancouver (about 1000 miles in two days).  We planned on staying at a Provincial Park but when we arrived, was notified that the park was closed due to one of the many British Columbia wildfires being deemed to close.  We did not see any of the fires on our drive but definitely saw and smelled the smoke.  We ended up spending the night at a WalMart in Prince George, the halfway point on our trip.  Many RVs were in the lot, so it appeared others may have run into the same challenge we had.

Chris asleep in our berth on the ferry.  He totally sleeps like a dead man!

 View from the deck, very smooth waters, fortunately

 Our room, had to get a four berth since we scheduled so late...worked out just fine.

 This was our boat, it was crazy how tight they parked us!
