THE INSIDE PASSAGE

I couldn’t post last evening due to the complete absence of communications links via internet or cell phone!  There were one or two spots along the way yesterday with a bit of cell service, but otherwise, ZIP!

We spent the day gazing at the beautiful scenery along the Inside Passage with Canada on both sides — mainland to starboard, barrier islands to port.

Through the night last night I awoke to take a snap or two...

Human habitation on the shoreline!

That lone “star” is actually Mars!  Quite bright at 3:00 a.m.

We woke to a foggy morn that took its sweet time burning off, but once it did — Oh MY!  Blue skies, green shoreline, black water — and a whale that I wasn’t quick enough to snap!  Hoping to see more.  Paul was on the look-out most of the day but no luck so far.

We spent the day soaking in the wilderness view, occasionally walking the deck, and playing around on our “little machines.”  Thank goodness for APPS!

Here are some shots of our passage:

We capped off our day with a pick-up dinner in the cafeteria and watched the sunset before heading off to our cabin for the night.
