Suzie had us up and aboard the bus very early to catch the B.C Ferry back over to Vancouver where we will be boarding the Golden Princess for the next leg of our Journey through the Inside Passage and on up to Whittier in Alaska.

Sadly, we had to say goodbye to Johnathon our wonderful coach driver he isn't coming with us on our next coach leg of the trip.

We arrived around 11am to begin the waiting and checking in, before boarding the Golden Princess, wow she looks huge and I am sure we will get lost aboard her.

Finally, onboard and Stateroom B 634 on the 11th floor known as the Baha deck it is home for the next week. They must have known something as it become the daily laugh between staff when I again & again missed the door into the cabin.

We sailed off at 4.30pm with calm seas and clear skies, certainly hope the trip continues like this. Wonderful way to celebrate the beginning of the cruise with drinkies with Vicki & Murray in the Sky DeckLounge.

We had a great time exploring, getting lost and generally muddling along before finding our way around the ship, we took in a couple of great shows, watched demonstrations and took time to relax and unwind after the busy last couple of weeks of travelling.
