Sidney to Garrison Bay

We are headed back to the US today. Sadly, this starts the trip home. We’ll still have a few nice days on the boat ahead, just not what we’ve experienced the last ten days or so.

Morning in Sidney. We are the small boat on the dock full of big boats. Oddly, most seem to be from California. I cleaned the boat a bit. Kim went to town. We left when she came back.

Clam Bay to James Bay

I can report that we made it safely out of Clam Bay with nothing attached to the boat that shouldn’t be. I have conquered my fear of Clam Bay. That’s good because I know who would have had to get in the water … again.

Ladysmith to Clam Bay

We departed Ladysmith with no destination in mind. We’ll need to come back again and spend a bit more time. Everyone was very nice.

Ganges to Wallace Island

It’s a gray morning here at Wallace Island. Low clouds, not quite fog. We’ve been here two days now. For the most part, it’s been nice. Not great, but nice.

Like this photo from yesterday morning. This is better than nice.

Montague Harbour

We stayed an extra night in Montague Harbour. It was quite and nice, so why not?

We woke to rain this morning. Low clouds hanging on the hills. It was not a complete surprise. I seem to remember something about rain in the forecast. With the rain and low clouds, it’s very quiet this morning. There is little sign of life on the other boats. The water is absolutely flat and calm.

It was a lazy morning reading and relaxing.

The sun came out just after noon. We took the kayaks on a great circumnavigation of Montague Harbor. It was very nice. I have a bunch of video, but I don’t know that the current connection can upload it. I’ll save it for another time, exciting as it is …

Spencer Spit to Montague Harbour

We’ve been out of Internet contact for a few days so I am trying to get all the posts caught up.

A few morning sprinkles and a nice rainbow as sunrise greeted us.
