Prince Rupert

We're in Prince Rupert with the possibility (currently we are on a wait list) that we will be on a BC Ferry to Vancover Island in the morning. Our three days here have been mostly rainy - but we've managed to stay busy and have enjoyed our stay. We visited a local museum, a National Historic Site, managed two hikes, and did our usual drive to the "end of the road".

A nice sunken garden in town

 

 

Constructed in the 1890s - we had an informative walking tour
At its peak the cannery had 100 of these houses for First Nation employees. The cannery also employed Chinese, Japanese and European workers - each having separate accommodations.

Very interesting pictures as usual. The garden is very pretty. The cannery buildings built on the water is really amazing and to have been standing for so long. It didn't look too rainy except for the lunch stop picture when the walkway looked wet. Sounds like a lot of people going to Vancouver Island. Where will you be going when you leave there ? Enjoy the island.
