A ferry good time

Sorry about the title. That's horrible. Even I cringed and I wrote it.
For those without a mental map of Western Canada (i.e most of the Southern Hemisphere and most Americans), just off the coast of Vancouver is a big-arsed island, creatively named Vancouver Island. On Vancouver island lies the capital of BC, Victoria (oh wow, that's original). To get between the cities you need to get a ferry, and not some pansy Sydney ferry, I'm talking baby cruise ship size.
Anyway, it's an hour and a half from Vancouver Island to the mainland and the ferry winds its way through the Gulf Islands to get there, giving stoked first-time passengers (like myself) ample opportunity to waste camera batteries.
Mine are rechargeable, so ner.

For those who've followed this blog since rockclimbing days back at Arapiles in Victoria, Australia, you may remember hearing about Paul Bailey, a friend of ours who had a serious fall.
Five months on and he's still doing it tough, but I believe he's finally made it back home to the U.S where he will continue his recovery.
Recently a journalist in the States recently did a story on him, which is well worth a read.
His family has also set up a blog following the accident.
All the best dude.
