We've been on the BC Ferries between Vancouver and Nanaimo, we were very impressed compared to our experience with Marine Atlantic 😆. To be fair, the staff were amazing! They can't help that they are on the Atlantic and the boat doesn't work half the time 😅

We did! The chickens are living with my cousin this winter. We knew we wanted to visit family over Christmas and March break so they are enjoying a lovely winter about 30 minutes away.

I got stuck in an airport in Japan for 12 hours. Delays are never fun during a trip. But the fact you’re stuck on a boat really sucks.

We are between two little mountains in the highlands in Cape Breton. It keeps us from the really high winds but we seem to get more snow than other places! We took the tarp off our shelter logic for Fiona! We were worried it would blow away 😄

oh my, I found your video looking for what sort of paper work (identification wise) we need to take the ferry over and back. My partner was born in NFLD and never got her driver's license, but she does have a expired passport. We tried to go to Service Canada for a identification card that is suppose to give her the second photo ID because everyone asks for 2, and the Health Canada card (photo ID ) is not acceptable??? okay! But apparently she needs the second ID to get this card too? ok now we are in a loop? We are planning a trip late July to drive from Barrie Ontario to North Sydney to catch the ferry over and have book hotels along the way. But after watching your ordeal now you have made me a little more nervous about problems along the way. The hotels all assured us that the rooms would be there if we are a little late but we thought hours not days. Sorry you had such a ordeal and with small kids, who on camera were perfect little angels, only you know how the rest of that trip went. lol From what you had to show at the crossing do you think, (we call the port and they said 2 ID and felt the passport would be ok) the expired Passport an Health card will be enough? IT's a bit of a trip to get turned around at the ferry. Thanks for any thoughts you might have and have a wonderful summer.

I'm pretty sure if you go to the DMV with a birth certificate and your health card they can issue a photo government ID. It is the same ID that would be needed to fly domestically to get on the ferry. A drivers license or a government issued ID (looks the same as a license and you get them at the DMV). I hope you can get it sorted!

@@ODriscolls unfortunately the only birth certificate she has was generated by her younger brother thru their local church back in Gambo and its a photo copy, sent by email print of a picture taken at the archives. Tell me those civil servants in Service Ontario are going to yield to that.?

@@southerncomfort971 they probably will yield to it in Newfoundland to generate a modern birth certificate. I would contact vital statistics (or whatever it's called there) in Newfoundland about it!
