We arrived at Prince Rupert today, and again in rain; the weather is starting to wear me down. I am ready for some sunshine. The views along the Skeena river and the snow covered mountain tops would have been fantastic in sunshine. We also saw many waterfalls cascading down the mountain sides.

Prince Rupert is a deep sea port, but there were no large ships to watch being loaded, just containers piled high on the wharf.

We arrived extra early here so we would not miss the ferry in case we had a breakdown.  We used the time to catch up on reading and on planning the next portion of the trip.
