Wednesday September 7: Off to Explore BC

 

After some good Somer-Grandma snuggling, we set out to explore some more of BC. As we headed north, the bright red of the mountain ash berries really stood out against the late-summer dry greens of the forest. From Nelson, we headed west and then north through Nakusp

to Galena Bay. We had about 20 minutes to walk around before the ferry arrived. The scenery around Upper Arrow Lake is spectacular. We were very far back in the line and not too surprised when the gate came down in front of us, indicating a full ferry. However, after some jostling and juggling, they fit us on. 

More great views as we crossed to Shelter Bay, and continuing along the drive to Revelstoke. We stopped there for a walk around this very cute railway town with its amazing mountain view, and to have lunch. Then on through more amazing mountain scenery to the Rogers Pass. Since we decided we were too tired to walk any more we checked into the Best Western and simply took advantage of the views from the parking lot.
