Vancouver, Boarding the Silver Nova

Nancy, Jim and I, after all waking up at 4:30am, decided to explore Vancouver a bit before boarding the Silver Nova,
Jeff and I were in Vancouver in the mid-nineties after an Alaskan cruise and found the city to be quite gritty. It s seems like that has changed and the city has experienced quite a lot of waterfront
upscaling. Having awakened so early, it seemed like we had had a full day by noon!
We boarded the ship and headed straight to lunch and drinks as we had worked up a powerful thirst by then.
We have always loved the Silversea ships, but the Silver Nova goes above and beyond. It is an environmentally friendly ship which has abandoned all use of plastics and many other similar items.
It took the balance of the day to become familiar with the ship which holds about 700 passengers.
An excellent dinner (salmon for me, we are in Alaska) and an early bedtime for 3 weary travelers.Read more
