Goodbye Vancouver Island, Hello Prince Rupert…

Greetings,

The time is 5:30am and we’re waiting to board the ferry that concludes our time on Vancouver Island and bring us on a 16 hour journey to Prince Rupert. The island was great times but sadly, all things even the most egregious must come to an end. The video above is a time lapse from Ucluelet to Tofino or half way there. This is the footage I was copying from the camera at the surf shop before we lost everything. We cut the transfer off half way as it was surf time but it will do for this summer Saturday.

This video should give you an idea of what it’s like driving on the island, old growth forests line the highways.

The ferry is 16 hours and there is no wifi and intermittent cell service. There are two videos that will hopefully upload from Prince Rupert as I’ve seen these monster files get to 90%+ several times now all to have a soul destroying upload error. Naturally I’d make them smaller but for some reason when I load big projects in Windows Live Movie Maker, it just crashes, great. The videos that will hopefully be coming soon cover our trip from Campbell River to Alert Bay as well as our day whale watching in Telegraph Cove.

It’s basically two weeks into this trip, where does time go!?

I’m here with the Explore BC Project, to learn more  visit the Tourism BC Facebook Page and look up #ExploreBC on Twitter.

All aboard!

Tips hat,
