The ferry only took about an hour and a half to cross the Juan De Fuca Strait. Compared to other ferries that I've been on this one looked a lot more like the Titanic then a barge.
Julia liked being on the boat and the scenery was nice. I was able to take some good pictures from the boat. After making it through customs we made our way up to our vacation rental located on Elk Lake in Saanich.
