This was a day with probably the least amount of civilization. We skirted the Washington rain forest's the entire day.


We were riding thru or along the edge of Olympic National Forest most of the day


Lake Crescent is one of the clearest lakes I have ever seen.














As you can see the water is phenomenally clear

Sitting waiting for road construction along Lake Crescent







This sign was made infamous by a silly movie about sparkly vampires that can walk in daylight called Twilight. They had Twilight everything in this town, it would not have surprised me to see Twilight toilet paper in the restrooms.

Sitting at the ferry terminal in Vancouver waiting in line

On this ferry you just jam a couple of blocks of wood underneath and call it good.



This is the lifeboat rack on the ferry




It's a busy harbor, lots of other ferries and tugboats, lots of commerce here









The sky seemed extra blue here




















A coupla pics taken at the stern of the ship of Dad and I enjoying the beautiful day



Almost time to be free

Dad didn't seem very happy about this picture

A tribute to our hosts, on Victoria Island, BC


A old hotel near the capitol

Some pretty slick looking boats in the harbor here, A LOT of money here I would imagine



This is the parliament building for British Columbia

One of the queens of England, honestly not sure which one


You could take stage rides around the capital


This guy was doing a variety comedy juggling show on the docks



Everything here was immaculate, except for chip sealed roads everywhere Canada sure seemed clean
Must be rough to have a speedboat AND a lifeboat on the back of your boat

Here comes our next ferry

This is how the captain guides the ferry into the dock

Tying up your bike on this ferry is TERRIFYING!!! I ran extra straps to make it somewhat stable, some of the other bikes just ran the single rope provided


Say Goodbye to Canada


Back to the good ol' US of A







Even cruise ships stop here

Looking ahead the sky does not look so inviting

Last Boats you see as you leave Victoria Island

Into the fog on the way to the states



This is one of my favorite pics because it almost looks like it is in black and white even tho its in color... Last pic I took on the way into Port Angeles
