The Ferry From Horseshoe Bay to Nanaimo

We drove to the end of the Sea to Sky Highway to catch our Ferry to Nanaimo. We had reservations for 2:15 and arrived with in plenty of time, only to discover that our ferry crossing had been cancelled. We were given passes and got in line for the earlier one and were told we would more than likely be able to go on it. We both got on no problem. The crossing took an hour and a half. We had to stay outside on the car deck because of the dog, but that was fine as we had a great view right from the front of the ship.

Since we needed to look after our tire situation so we drove to the Walmart parking lot and started making some calls. We found a place that had the tires in stock and would be able to put then on right away and for under $500.00 installed! We went right over and within half an hour they had the old ones off and the new ones on, talk about service! A great end to an already good day.
