Today we left our remote sanctuary behind and headed for civilization. Fair winds, calm seas, and sunshine were with us again, providing another fantastic day of cruising. As we neared Prince Rupert we began seeing signs of life, and not the marine and aviary kind we’ve grown accustomed to. We saw paved roads, a full size grocery store, souvenir shops, cafes, and even buses. We saw groups of the homosapian species with juveniles in tow which we haven’t seen in this large of numbers in almost a month.
All of our boats were able to tie along the docks at the Prince Rupert Rowing & Yacht Club, which is located right in the heart of “downtown” Prince Rupert. There seem to be several cute little shops and restaurants which we’ll likely explore during our lay day tomorrow. The local bay is known as Cow Bay and the town has definitely used that as its theme. There is Cow Bay Café and Cowpaccino’s to grab a latte while walking around the cow painted street markers, garbage cans, building walls, and large cow scenes with cut outs to put your heads in for pictures. Tomorrow we’ll have the opportunity to get the full Prince Rupert experience.
