Long Week-End Ferry

There can be a timelessness here on Gabriola Island, except when it comes to the ferry schedules when one is trying to leave the island to go back to the mainland. During the summer the island lures innumerable week-enders and summer tourists who come to camp, to bike, to kayak, or just to explore.  So it goes that the line-ups for the ferries are extra long.

 In fact you may find yourself waiting in the lineup past the sign that marks the amount of cars that will fit on one loading.  Some days they can load 7 to 10 extra vehicles which are past the sign, depending on gaps in the line-up, etc.


and then some days it is just jam packed...
