Goodbye Ketchikan and goodbye Alaska!!!
Fueled up and headed south. Felice Strait wind and waves were not as forecast. We had some of the roughest seas we have experienced for about 2.5 hours and as we passed Duke Island and approached Foggy Bay (our duckout point) the waves changed enough so that we were able to kickup the speed to 18 knots and ride on top of the waves. Very relieved, we decided to press on and tied up in Cow Bay Marina in Price Rupert, BC.
We cleared Canadian Customs and got ready for the Canada Day fireworks.
For a small town (population 12,508) they put on an outstanding fireworks show. Only problem is it did not start until 11:15! It takes it a while to get dark up here.
July 2 - 4
We took off and anchored out for a couple of days, getting in some kayaking, crabbing and a little fishing.

July 5 - 6
Back to Cow Bay Marina with one big difference. SUN! We are back to get the boat in shape for the arrival of Admiral GiGi and the sunshine makes cleaning the boat a lot more pleasant.

| Watch cat. We first met the Sandpiper II in Hoonah, Alaska and it was good to see them again |
Tomorrow we head south.
Till next time........
