Sailing past Capbell river

It's been over 24 hours since we lost all communications, but we are
now sailing south past Campbell River and my phone picked up 1 bar. We
saw whales breaching and tail-waving near Namu. Bella Bella was
quaint. Lots of beautiful misty mountains. Bellingham at 8am tomorrow!

Good morning from J

J is enjoying some Chinese cereal drink and a bit of adventurequest in our motel room. It's still cold and wet outside, the horns of the ships and sea planes taking off outside our window were our wake-up call this morning.

Hello from the Alaska Marine Highway

We crossed through US customs in Prince Rupert and are now on our way to Kethikan Alaska. Alaska time is 1 hour earlier than Pacific time, and we entered that time zone when we boarded the ferry. E2 is getting some Z's.

Snack time

A Canadian favorite, "Five Alive" (shown here on the French side, "Deli-Cinq") was our snack, with some Tim Horton Doughnuts (already consumed). Our trusty old water bottle from the Mojave Desert (after 5 weeks of travel) was used to top up and wash up.

Bear-proof garbages

Most garbage bins in the parks and rest stops in northern BC look like this. You have to reach in and lift a lever to open it. Bears cannot penetrate the bin.

Remember these?

J&E spent much of the afternoon on the oldskool playground equipment at a park in Terrace. The merry-go-round was their favorite, and E was quickly sporting a few bandaids on her knees.
