We got off the CR today around 2:30pm and the lineup was pretty big. We were still down at Ogden Point around 4:30pm and tried to get on again just for the hell of it to see if we could but we were turned down. They left at 6pm as we watched her leave.

That's odd.
But she is definately on her way up the Coast, she's just north
of Sidney Island, about to change her course to enter Swanson
Channel.
She's making good speed, she's at her service speed of 21 knots.
Was kinda hopin' to chart her course back tomorrow afternoon.
Got an email from someone who wanted to get aboard, but
couldn't.

On the sitech tracker it says she is heading to Tsawwassen. Why Tsawwassen I wonder?? They did say they were going to Vancouver tonight but what for?

The crews vehicles were parked along the outside lane of the MCD maybe they were to take a later sailing to Nanaimo to get their cars back to the island. That is, if the CR was spending the night at Tsawwassen.
