Prince Rupert to Port Hardy Aug 15

Our ferry left in the afternoon.  We are now on the BC Ferries.  What a difference between the Alaska Ferries and BC Ferries.  Enjoyed the Alaska Ferry way more.  Several complaints about the BC Ferry and they have my comments.  Anyways, we did see some neat things on this ferry.  The salmon are running here and we had one stop in Bella Bella for an hour.  Where we docked the salmon were jumping out of the water and slamming back down, it was really funny.  Also there were a bunch of bald eagles trying to catch the salmon but when we docked the eagles flew up to the trees.  We got some pics but because they were far away and action shots its hard to make out unless you know where the eagle is.  I'll post one and try to find it.  Something like Where's Waldo.
