Left a cold, rainy and thoroughly depressing Port Hardy. I am sure it has redeeming value but it escaped me as we made our way to the ferry terminal at 5:00AM It may be that the last thing you remember when you leave a conveniently located RV park to cross on a ferry and arrive at another conveniently located RV park is that the owners of said RV parks don’t give a rat’s ass as they have a captive audience and couldn’t care less. For the sake of tourism in BC and other places with ferries, I suggest they do something. By simple math, at least 30% of the sites were occupied by folks coming and going on the ferries and that is a guaranteed income. Location, location, location… Enough…
The ferry ride was great, more of a poor-man’s Alaska cruise where you get to bring your RV, albeit for a hefty charge. But the route showed just how picturesque the wilds of northern BC can be with just a few small villages like Bella Bella, fishing lodges, lots of waterfalls and many, many fishing boats, very nice.
The ferry crossing was great. I am sure Phil covered it in detail including the lighthouse rant, too funny.
