This afternoon we board the next ferry for Ketchikan Alaska. We have to go through customs going into the US. The trip up the BC coast on the ferry was very long, but gorgeous the entire way. When I have more time I'll post some of the photos. Apparently we are hitting the best weather window. It's been in the high 60's to 70 degrees and some of the locals are commenting on how HOT it is! Walking in Cow Bay section of Prince Rupert, we saw an eagle just sitting on a fence 15 feet from us chewing on something. He watched us stop and gawk, then decided to finish his meal in a nearby tree. Of course, that's the one time the camera was in the car! We will get into Ketchican around midnight tonight (it's light until 10pm!), stay in a parking lot at Walmart, do some shopping and then get on the next ferry tomorrow to Prince of Wales Island. It's supposed to be fairly unpopulated and beautiful. It will be a nice 3 days of relax...
