Homeward Bound with Company

Our return to Canada was heartfelt.  After presenting a negative Covid test, we cleared Canadian Customs in mid-August.  Our first anchorage was Verney Falls, a favorite which has a reversing water fall that attracts bears...but not this time.

The next day we had the most wonderful whale show ever...friendly and active.

 
We never approach whales but sometimes they approach us.  This one swam with the boat.




Rolled a few times flashing his fins...

Preparing for a deep dive




And showed his pretty tail



We picked our next guests, Linda and Pete, up in Port McNeill.  The fish were few but this is a very nice lingcod.




A fashion show on the high seas!



Good Company
