Aug. 14: Beautiful day for a ferry ride, stopped at Kake, Alaska, at 9:15, Petersburg, Alaska at 12:45, got off, had half hour and back on. Stopped in Wrangell at 5:45, got off again to see if the kids were there selling garnets, which they were, didn't buy any though. The kids can get them for free and the grownups must pay to get them, I guess this is his collage fund. Just sat around and watched where we were going, went through the narrows during the daylight, they didn't have a naturalist on board this trip. Went to bed about 10, had a nice smooth ride, docked at Ketchikan about 1am.
Aug. 15: Got up early, dock was full with ferries and catamoran, farther to the right was two cruise ships, pulled out of terminal at 7:15am. We had got back to Prince Rupert, British Columbia at 2:15pm, carpooled back to trailer, did laundry, went to grocery store and downloaded over 500 pictures onto computer.
Aug. 16: Slept late, went into town, I had ordered a shirt at a shop before we left, they were out of my size, they told me they would hold one for me when I return, so we went and picked it up. Didn't really do much this day, worked on pictures in computer, later in the evening we had a fish fry, four guys went fishing while we where in Sitka and they caught plenty of fish, decided to have a fish fry for everyone, really good, everyone contributed a side dish, had plenty to eat. After it was all cleaned up we had a drivers meeting, getting ready to move again.
