Re:British Columbia Trip
The plane ticket from CWA to Vancouver was about $US450 when purchased ahead of time. The cost of some of these charters can be found at



Remeber this is Canadian dollars which is worth about $US0.75 in real money.

This is a great place to visit. I have always enjoyed this area. Take a look at this view from the boat.

Re:British Columbia Trip

There are a number of purpose sunk wrecks and regular hit the rocks wrecks in the area. British Columbia divers have been very active in getting the Canadian Government to sink out of date warships. (Yes, Canada has a Navy)

This was a major shipping route so there are regular wrecks also. In fact a famous rum runner is sunk just outside of one of the pulp mills in the area.

We did not have time to make more dives, had to work. Would like to dive the place again. There are some great places to dive here.

For some examples, check out
