Today we were out and about in Prince
Rupert spotting bald
eagles. The trees were full and there were thirteen of them
sitting in a line along the wharf. The local small birds tend
to fly low and fast.
The carved poles, which are all over this town are
actually decorations for the front of longhouses, built of massive
timbers by local people up to the last century.
Prince Rupert started as a railway town, at the
end of the new line. The building in the background dates proudly
from 1928.
There is very little high rise and the buildings along the main
street are generally rather older. Prince Rupert is a lovely town
to walk in even with the soft rain that reminds me of the West
of England.
