We were scheduled for the 6pm Ferry out of Tsawwasen BC. No knowing what traffic would be like through Portland, Vancouver WA, Olympia, Tacoma, Seattle, and the Border we left Salem at 6:30am.
Well except for a brief slow down by the Tacoma Dome due to a traffic accident there was no traffic. Once we got north of Seattle we stopped at 2 Costcos for eating lunch, doing a little shopping, clean bathrooms, and topping up of gas. When we got to the Border there was only 1 car in front of us. The Canadian Border Officer apparently did not like some of their answers because after quite a bit of questioning they were directed to the detailed inspection area. When it was our turn the Border Officer asked a couple question, scanned our Passport Information, looked at our vaccination cards, and looked at our down loaded Covid Test results and wished us a good trip to Victoria.
We arrived at the Ferry Terminal at 2:56pm. So for an extra $28 We were allowed to get on the 3pm Ferry. After stopping for grocery shopping we arrived at the Worldmark at 6pm - the time of our originally scheduled Ferry.
There was a little bit of rain yesterday and some rain today. We have not had any real rain in Salem for months. It actually feels nice. Today is a day of relaxation and maybe hit a Farmers' Market.
The check-in was efficient, friendly, and painless. We forgot how small are the regular 2 Bedroom Units. Patti said next time we will reserve a 2 Bedroom Penthouse like last time. We are on the 7th Floor in the East Building - to the right as you face the Lobby from the Street. Wish we were on the 9th Floor.
