It's quite choppy this morning. We're back in the Pacific time zone and heading South. We'll be at sea all day, but I believe we'll tuck into the inner passage when we get to Vancouver Island.

Wandering around the ship. Nobody is using the pool today for some reason. 🤔
I'm glad I have my cabin balcony as refuge, though it's really just the horizon to see today. I went up to the bridgeRead more

Day 8 - It's a small world
October 18, 2024 in Canada ⋅ 🌧 50 °F
I went to Minature World of course, as it's the greatest little show on Earth. It was actually brilliant. Clearly a work of love.
So it's an endless set of Minature Dioramas with exquisite detail.

TravelerWe have some museums making miniatures like this, but mostly about great patriotic war (WW2) as it impacted every family here in Russia. It's interesting to look at it from aside
TravelerThis is my first time to visit one. It actually had a lot more... Space, circus, fairytales, cities, and so on.

The capital of British Columbia is in Victoria. There are 3,333 lights on the building, which is the same number of jewels on Queen Victoria's Crown. I guess it's Charles' now.

Just got my bags, but one has been destroyed. Sigh!
It's brand new, but it had two of its wheels broken off.
