As well, I read a book that Glen recommended to me about a widow who took her four children and sailed the Inside Passage for the summer holidays. I liked that idea.
Sailing through the islands on a huge ocean liner is the option that came my way.

Glen recommends it from a helicopter.
I would go back in a heartbeat – perhaps up and back the next time instead of doing one-way.

“Weren’t you afraid of a back injury,” I asked someone in their late forties. “I already have a back injury, and the landing was fine. No problem.” The cost was $100. The journey up the mountain took 45 minutes. The trip down is 90 seconds. Maybe I will try that the next time I go.
I was up early to watch the sail in. When it was over Greg walked in the door of the cabin.
That is the problem of being separated by a sound-proof door.
He had been up early as well and had gone up to the top deck to watch.

Beautiful pictures of Vancouver, Arta.
ReplyDeleteThe day was foggy and I was thinking of putting my camera away because it so so much more fun to work with it in the sun. I learned early in the cruise that we would have a lot of fog -- or sometimes smog. So there was no use waiting for the sunny days to take pictures. Remember the Chinese guide who told us that the smog we were seeing in the city was just that -- smog. He said for year the government told them it was just fog, but now the people know it is smog that covers the city. Only on a windy day does it leave, and then it is blown to another province he said.
ReplyDeleteBack to Vancouver. Of all of the cruising days, the one I don't like is the day we leave the ship. It is call "a day" but we are usually off of the ship by 9 am. I decided to make my Vancouver day a full day, by getting up early and watching as we entered the harbour. Then I enjoyed again the docking process. By 9 am I felt I had my full day.
