We finally get on the dock at Shearwater, the reservation
that Rick made held. Gotta love that
satellite phone! We run into more
BYC’ers – “Celiadh” and have dinner with Bill and Eileen that night. We are not guaranteed a second night stay, so
early in the morning, we (Rick, Faye and myself) run over to Bella Bella in the
dinghy to see what’s new.
If ever a place should get an award for the best makeover,
it’s Bella Bella (known also as Waglisla).
The newly built store is fully stocked with an in-store
bakery….mmmmm fresh bread and fresh
raisin bread. Produce is not wilty and
plenty of it. Dairy has some good long
dates on it! Should have not spent all
our money on food in Shearwater, but should have stopped here. Oh well, for next time!
The beaches are all cleaned up, the people super friendly
and the new longhouse is still being built.
The display centre is a must see!
