Evening Stroll in Vancouver

It was a glorious evening here in Vancouver last night. They say the weather will change in the next few days, so our timing couldn’t have been better!

Vegan Vancouver

Just another quick phone post during our way-too-brief stay here in Vancouver before our cruise. I love this city for so many reasons – one being the amazing variety of food.

Cruisin’ Day 2

On to Day 2 of our Cruise…actually, this is so much fun posting weeks later, not that it’s been fun being under the weather, but it’s fun re-living our cruise again now through these photos.

I have lots to share, but today, I’ll simply start with these photos taken from the Vancouver Lookout Tower – one of our tourist stopping points.

Alaska

Should we? Shouldn’t we? Should we? Shouldn’t we? This is the ongoing conversation Pops and I have been having for about 2 weeks now. The question “Go on an Alaskan Cruise?” Today, Pop’s answered that question when he called me to tell me he booked our trip for the end of July. We’re going on […] Read more…
