Day 8: The Ferry

We broke camp in the rain this morning at 4 (yuck) and headed down to the ferry terminal. It was pretty much hurry to get in line, then wait around. Once we were on the ship and underway, everything was good. Sarah and I ate (decent) hot meals for the first time in several days, and spent most of our time out on deck or under the solarium with its heat lamps. We have our sleeping bags under heat lamps now to dry out, and we'll spend the night out here. We've seen one pod of orcas, and several humpbacks, which has been neat. They need to get closer to the boat though, and come farther out of the water. It's been really nice not to be the one in charge of getting us to our destination.
