Two Campervans One Human – Seattle to Vancouver Island in One Weekend – Four Ferries & One Flight
Hello everyone, in this video I will show Seattle to Vancouver Island in One Weekend.
You will also get many ideas about Seattle to victoria ferry, Seattle to Vancouver flight, Seattle to Vancouver drive, Seattle to Vancouver ferry, Seattle to victoria ferry, and van across the border in this video.
This was a special opportunity for a special renter.
This renter had rented the van out 8 months in advance. She was coming overseas for an extensive tour of her old British Columbia, Canada stomping grounds and using the camper van for her travels.
Her booking took a bit of work initially because we had several date changes, but once it got fully dialed, it was just a matter of waiting for her arrival.
The caveat is……Can I pick it up in Victoria?
Thus, I needed to get both my vans across the border in one weekend!
She planned to land in Victoria, Canada.
The renter before her returned the van to Seattle…
So here is the plan and how it shaped up.
I had the van off to the weekend renter.
While they have it, roll up and get my Sprinter up to Steph’s.
We enjoy the weekend together and catch up between all of the travel. That included walks with Coop on the gorge, exercising together, cooking together and a dinner date out.
Then I will take a Sea Plane back to Seattle to receive it back from a renter.
The morning started like normal. An abbreviated walk with the family; Steph, Coop, and I, and then we jetted downtown to try a new coffee shop prior to getting to the Seaplane dock.
Checking in and security at a seaplane dock is quite different than the normal airport experience. It is incredibly fast and the experience was punctuated with the ability to walk around in or outside, comfortable seating, and complimentary coffee, muffins, and fruit.
Nobody was splurging for the goods, so I did. Admittedly, I went a bit overboard. I had 3 muffins. One Blueberry, One banana nut, and one chocolate. Phew, finally that weight is lifted off of my shoulders and I don’t feel so bad about keeping that secret to myself:).
I snapped videos quickly because the views themselves were spectacular and I just wanted to enjoy the scenery. It was so pleasant. I actually recognized many parts of the landscape from having driven up the peninsula on surf trips so many times in the last 2 seasons.
As we approached the city the skyline was noticeable from afar, but within no time, we banked a turn, see the ground through the left side of the plane and then the space needle, and then we are redirected to Lake Union to go through US Border protection services.
That quick walk was a bit confusing as we didn’t really do a ton other than walk in and out of a building and get a glance at our passports. We then board another plane for a 5-minute flight up to Lake Washington which saves me a ton of traffic and drive time. This is where the renter is returning the vehicle and I am back on my way.
The challenge now is actually making it quickly through the land border crossing and catching the ferry back over to Vancouver Island. Being a Sunday in the summer, I missed the first two sailings I was in line for and made the final one of the day, catching a beautiful sunset on the way over.
It was a fatiguing day and I never quit moving.
