We had a few days to kill before Yammy headed home to the Yukon. We decided she should go bus ferry bus to the Vancouver Airport, leaving from Sidney. We stayed once more at Pirate's Cove where we discovered the pirate's chest had been refilled. Then Montague Hbr and then Royal Cove close to Sidney. After that Yammy left and I was on my own for the first time in many months. I spent a couple of beautiful days on Sidney Spit . Then Friday Harbour where for various reasons my entry into the US was a two hour ordeal. The next day I went to Sucia Island and spent a couple of days there. Then it was over to Stuart Island and the next day back to Sidney Tomorrow I start heading North.
