July 16,2024 Vancouver Canada

On our last full day in Vancouver, I opened the drapes to a protest across the street. Except that it really wasn’t a protest…lasted about 15 minutes…folks posed, switched places and took turns taking photos. Whatever.

Breakfast was yummy…but the best thing about breakfast were the folks in the dining room…to a person the service was exemplary…we were greeted by our names and warmly welcomed. In fact every single person that we interacted with at the Rosewood were delightful and so professional.

After breakfast I set out for Stanley Park

This spot reminds me of Sonora.

Upon my return we spent some time packing … Then we cancelled our dinner reservation…again we just couldn’t think about dining out…

Goodbye Vancouver

Opened the drapes to another photo shoot…

We had coffee in our room, then set off for the airport …

…so many opportunities to shop…I did not…

Cappuccinos in the Air Canada lounge…then we boarded …

Is there no end to the food?

The flight was fine…I watched Barbie…and we landed without incident in Newark.

Home Sweet Home♥️♥️♥️

We slept in…like way in…unpacked, did tons of laundry and went grocery shopping…

This was our total at Stop and Shop…couldn’t believe it…so I took a pic…

Feels a bit strange to be cooking again…please note that Freddy is supervising. I think he’s happy that we are home.
We had a truly marvelous adventure…Torrey Pines was a perfick kick off …our time on Serenity was super, highlights included walking on the glacier, reconnecting with our beloved crew and making new friends. Sonora was among the finest resorts that we’ve stayed at…oh those eagles …and my fish!
Vancouver is our new favorite city.
Our adventure was a journey of discovery and joy. We’ve been awed by nature’s beauty and found peace in its tranquillity. These travels have given us more than we ever imagined …memories we’ll cherish for ever. Thank you for following along. We can’t wait to share our next adventure…♥️
