watching boats as I was waiting for the ferry at Duke Point Hello again,
I arrived in Vancouver around 4:30 and am leaving at 1:45pm on June 20th for Ottawa. I managed to get Amanda all ready to go and have her Dad pick her up at school yesterday after she finished her final exams. My car was too full to be able to take both myself and Amanda plus all of our stuff to Nanaimo.
I opted for taking the Duke Point ferry to Tswassen to try and avoid rush hour traffic in to the city. I was only delayed about 20 minutes south of the Dease Island tunnel. After sorting out my bags I dropped the car at Craig's girlfriend, Stephanie's parents, Dick and Carel's. I had a really nice visit and then my brother-in-law, Jonathon picked me up and drove me back to my hotel near the airport. My flight to Ottawa left 15 minutes late but we still managed to arrive in Ottawa almost a half hour early. It was the fastest trip I have ever been on across Canada. I had a few hours sleep before leaving to Iqaluit on Father's Day morning.
