Mother Goose Leg 1, Day 22 - Prince Rupert Lay Day

Our lay day in Prince Rupert was spent touring the town, browsing shops and enjoying espresso amidst cow painted tables and pictures. It was nice to be able to provision with fresh produce and buy some local souvenirs, but we are all anxious to get back out onto the water. Tomorrow we will be leaving B.C. and crossing into Alaska heading for Foggy Bay. We are all looking forward to getting back to nature and the beautiful remoteness of the area for one last night. I think it’s safe to say we’ve become spoiled by being the only boats in an anchorage spot. Tomorrow we will head to Foggy Bay and anchor for the final time of what has turned out to be an unbelievable and remarkable adventure. We are sad to have it be coming to an end, but look forward to our “last supper” together in which Deception will host a potluck dinner for all of the boats. I have a feeling the dinner will last well into the night…

  1. Thanks so much for sharing your incredible journey. I envy your travels, the sights you have seen, and the friendships you have developed. While I know words don't often match the experience - you are quite a writer! I could feel the excitment you all are experiencing. Love to my good friends Ed and Gayle. Safe travels home.
