Hundreds of people lined Alki Beach to watch dozens of canoes land after days of travel.
The Canoe Journey’s last stop is Alki Beach. The long haul began in British Columbia. It’s the first journey since it was stopped because of the COVID pandemic. The people who made that journey said while their bodies are sore, each time their paddle went into the water, it was healing.
“Pulling up saying we are hungry we are tired, and they will feed us and they allow us to stay on their land,” Watts explained. “It’s quiet, you can hear everything, and you really become - your paddle becomes one with the ocean. I don’t keep track of the miles because I’d probably stop paddling if I saw how many miles it is.”
The empty spaces in canoes left by the people they’ve lost, said Louis, mirrors the empty spaces in their hearts.
