We’re at The Prince Rupert Rowing and Yacht Club and will head to ALASKA tomorrow, which means we can put up our Alaska flag. Shaman is very excited. Of course, we won’t be in a part of Alaska that anyone has ever heard of. Foggy Bay is not on any cruise ship’s itinerary. It is on the itinerary of all cruising boats. It may be crowded.
Prince Rupert was celebrating the third day of their “Seafest” celebration, so we went down to the waterfront to see what was going on. Unfortunately, all of the good stuff was on Saturday: pie throwing and arm wresting and a car show. Actually, we saw the schedule later, and the community had done a great job; lots of activities for families and young people.
Pictures! Narrative will follow.
Shearwater marina. The mega yachts were stacked on each side of the dock. I was like walking througha tunel; you couldn't see the water. El Buccanero and Shamantalked told us thatt amost of them were friendly. 
Buttedale. We actually tied to the dock last year. It is not improving.
Source of power at Butedale.
This be a waterfall. I don't have them categorized yet.
Waterfall, again. We don't get bored. I did not take pictures of ALL of them. Most. Not all
Leaving Hartley Bay, small Native settlement. The cafe we enjoyed last year (the front yard of a family's house) does not open until July. That make sense. It was raining and probably 50 degrees the day we came in. Talk about dining al fresco.
Handsome fish boat in Grenville Channel, The Ditch: a straight 45 mile natural canal south of Prince Rupert.
Prince Rupert Rowing and Yacht Club. 'Didn't want you to have delusions of grandure when I refer to it in the log.
Old fire truck and old people.
Darlene learning about curling.
Middle school kids getting ready to race that really strange canoe at the Seafest celebration in Prince Rupert. Who do you suppose designed the canoe? Hiawatha, maybe? Are we in EASTERN Canada
My BEAR! I did see a bear on the beach! (I was not on the beach.) Doug told me it was a rock, but then it started to move.
