Looks like a good schedule. Rhonda & Xore might make a side trip to Victoria on the way back. If that's the case, we can drop Elbie off at the Nanaimo ferry and she might make the 16:40 ferry as a walk on passenger. Taking the car on the ferry is cheaper (with 3 people) than taking the greyhound to Courtenay and back, too! -- [[User:Rhonda|Rhonda]] 17:43, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
 
: Sounds good to me. How many seats does that leave in the car? We should prolly try to fill them to futher distribute the ferry toll. I can send out a message to the interested-in-geohashing mailing list.  [[User:Elbie|- Elbie]] 20:24, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
 
 
::There are 5 seatbelts total, so with the 3 of us that leaves 2 seats open. If anonymous is Robyn, one or both of those might be taken soon...
 
:::The anonymous edits earlier today were me, sorry - didn't realise my login had expired. I'll go post on the list now. [[User:Elbie|- Elbie]] 20:58, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
