Got up in our Vancouver hotel and after breakfast headed for the cruise terminal. Because my Prius could not handle four people and all our luggage, we also got a taxi. I followed the taxi through downtown Vancouver, weaving in and out of traffic. We were there in no time.
We checked in for our cruise. Our cabins were near the bow; the dining room near the stern. For three meals a day, we had to walk one mile per day. No problem for us, but it was for my dad, so we had to get a wheelchair to move him around the ship.
We departed under sunny skies at 5 PM.
