Sitrep Day 1

Hi folks, we started late this morning after a late arrival from our 13 hour flight last night, plus some issues with getting our e-SIMS to work fully. Now resolved - I think!!

We started with brunch at Breka Bakery, a cross between Brunettis in Melbourne and La Cloche in Wellington. Excellent.

Then onto the HopOn HopOff bus to Canada Square, Vancouver’s cruise ship terminal and conference centre. Three cruise ships in port, each one bigger than the last, the CROWN PRINCESS at 114,000 tonnes! We both agreed we were glad we weren’t on that kind of cruise!

We then caught a free shuttle to the 400m Capilano Suspension Bridge. Great experience, well worth the cost of the tickets. Des’s reaction “We did it, we did it, we really, really did it!”

Great gift shop. They had several attractive ammonite rings at half price (yes, I had to google it too!), but sadly they were all too small for Des’s finger. Bought t-shirt, hats & socks. 😟

Back to the hotel for wine and a light dinner - a long time coming in an empty restaurant, and my side of prawns was cold.

More Vancouver tomorrow, then Lufthansa to Munich.Les mer
