Who's taking the ferry and when?

It sounds like a number of us will be on the Ferry from Seattle to Victoria.
It's a three hour ride. Should we plan a floating SEO seminar/meet and greet?

Also is there any chance of these Ferry's filling up? Do you recommend purchasing tickets on line now or just paying on site?

Michael, I'm reserving my seat tomorrow - planned on doing it last week but I was away for the weekend and came back to busy time.

Also, I'm having trouble faxing my form to REW. I faxed the wrong thing last week (new online fax account) and it went through but I just realized my attendance form didn't make it and it tells me it keeps getting a busy signal.

I finally sent REW my payment this morning. All I have left to do is reserve a room and pay for the ferry. Theres nothing like waiting till the last minute....

Have you looked into renting a car?

Oops! I knew there was something I was forgetting. Will make some calls today about Enterprise. I booked my room in Ramada and will book the ferry today. I've got to check to see if my fax went through to REW.

Three of us arriving in Vancouver are sharing a rental car and will be on a different ferry Monday mid or late afternoon (about 1-1/2 hour as I understand). The express bus schedule from the airport to the ferry terminal only seems to work for earlier arrivals, and a taxi would probably be very expensive unless shared (about 40-45 minutes drive?). I would look for folks arriving about the same time and see if you can hook up at the airport for a taxi to the ferry terminal.

Michael, I just signed up on the Clipper and it's cheaper if you do it online. I had them e-mail you my itinerary. Problem is, my friend can get us a deal at Enterprise but it closes at 6:00 & that's when the Clipper comes in. By the time we get off and get to the rental car place it will be too late. I'll have to contact Brian Mc to see who he's using as he's taking the same ferry. I would think most of the car rental places would close at 6:00 but we'll see.

Maybe Morgan would drive down and pick us up

Just kidding!

I don't know how many are taking the ferry out of Port Angeles to Victoria, but we will be on the 8:20 AM on Sunday morning. We are looking forward to spending a little extra time there. If anyone else is planning on that, it would be great to meet up.

My flight gets into Victoria Monday just after 1pm - should arrive Nanaimo shortly after 3pm (COAST BASTION INN).

Judy, Michael, Ron & Dennis - when are you arriving and where are you staying?

[judyo]

Michael, Brian Mc & his wife Mary Ann and I are arriving on The Clipper Ferry Monday at 6:00 p.m. I'm staying at the Ramada Inn and I think Michael will be staying there too as we're sharing a car, which I'm still shopping around for.
