Day 7: A Ferry Ride and Onward to Nelson
The weather had gotten fairly warm by this part of the trip. We biked up the east side of Kootenay Lake and then took the free ferry from Kootenay Bay to Balfour, BC. The next 3 hours or so were spent on a picnic table in the shade watching the drama unfold as people congregated while waiting to take the ferry the other direction. We stopped and ate dinner in Nelson, probably the most happening spot we’d seen since Fernie.
