STILL IN CAMPBELL RIVER JUNE 10TH - 14TH

After three attempts our freezer temperature problem is finally fixed (for now). The repairman informed us that there is a delicate balance of pressure in charging the system. In our case the pressure was too high because of overcharging. It is now running at 12 degrees F. Just as we resolved that problem our water pump that supplies our fresh water system, galley, heads, showers etc DIED. Here in Campbell River they did not a replacement model in stock. We rented a car and drove to Nanaimo about 160 kilometers south from here. We made it into a lovely adventure enjoying the beautiful day and scenery. The wonderful colors of spring wild flowers dazzled our eyes with the back drop of snow capped mountains and the bright blue ocean. We found our pump at one of three West Marines in all of Canada. When we returned to Campbell River we took opportunity of having a car to explore some of the local spots. It turned out to be another great day!
