Nanaimo Skyline:










The old CP dock, now used by Seaspan's ships. Yeah, I remember riding in a car as we boarded the old Princess of Vancouver at that berth.....

More August 27 2009 photos, taken from the ferry Queen of Alberni:

Oakie ferry emerging from behind Snake Island. She has radar and there is no fog. That makes today different from the day that the Chinook-II ran aground on Snake...



Neck Point area of North Nanaimo coastline:



Wide-angle of Departure Bay and areas behind it, all the way back to Mount Arrowsmith:



Close-up of SugarLoaf, with Arrowsmith lurking behind.

(I was facing the sun, so the buildings were dark and I had to fiddle with the brightness-contrast... Life can't always be perfectly back-lit)
