Tuesday 8/7/2012 - Princess Louisa Inlet, BC
We woke up to bright sunshine. The area in front of Chatterbox Falls was still packed so we headed for the mooring balls and found an empty one and tied up. It was quite hot and sunny, so we thought it would be the perfect time to do a little laundry. We hung the clothes to dry on the life lines - there wasn't an empty spot on the lines when we were finished. To cool off we had a nice swim around the boat - the water was refreshing. Someone told us about a waterfall "pool" in the inlet, so after our swim we headed out in the dinghy to find it. When we got to the boulder they said we would see, we tied the dinghy up on a log and hiked up a small trail. There it was - a beautiful waterfall splashing into a pool of water. The water was cold but refreshing. We went for another dinghy ride and then headed back to the boat. The clothes were dry and after putting them away we were hot enough again to go for another swim. What a fun day! In the evening, we reviewed our itinerary and decided that we should probably start making our way back to Portland. We left a couple of days extra in the plan in case we had poor weather and couldn't travel. We were not able to connect to wifi, but we already had the time written down for exiting the rapids on Wednesday - around 6:30 a.m.
