I just need to get out of town for a few days to recharge & relax. Used to work & live up in PR for 4 years, so going to visit some friends & check out all the great tanks in the area.

Hey Anthony, glad to hear you're coming up this way. I hope Irene keeps a close eye on your fingers this time. :mrgreen:

Can somebody please remind me of the ferry schedule? It has been a few years since I made that trip and my recollection is that you spend half the day getting there...have 1 hour...then spend the other half of the day getting back.

Is it really possible to come from the Lower Mainland, see tanks and return in one day?

It is possible to come up, spend 4 or 5 hours and then head back to vancouver but it does make for a really long day

ok I vote November 8th. Any takers? :biggrin:

Good by me.

November 8th it is! Tickets are going fast. :biggrin:

Sounds like a plan. Hopefully it will work out.

Just came back from PR & saw these tanks. Well worth the trip.

Great friends, great reefers & great hospitality.

Brad, I would highly recommend that you plan on doing an overnighter rather than a day trip. If you do a day trip, you can catch the first ferry (7:20am) and come back on the last connecting ferry (leave PR 5:25pm). You would end up getting into Pr around 11:40am and back into the Lower Mainland around 9:30pm. This would give you a max. of 4 1/2 hours in town before rushing back to the ferry at Saltery Bay.

Better off going up on Saturday and come down mid-afternoon on Sunday.

Just a suggestion from someone whose done this commute literally 100s of times since 1997.

Anthony, it was good to see you again. Enjoyed your visit.
