Home Again, Home Again, Jiggiddy Jig





You can never have to many home comings. They can be as exciting as the home leavings at the start of a trip. So entering the Inside Passage, 30 days after leaving Penticton was a cause for some excitement and Nonie's need to lay down.









The Canadian portion or the Inside Passage has over 40,000 kilometres of coast line and with another 24 hours of cruising, we were going to see some of it.









Last year we had traveled by BC Ferry from Prince Rupert to Port Hardy, (See blog, The Missing Misty and Mysterious Haida Gwaii) seeing some of the incredible beauty of the Inside Passage up close.




This trip we will allow us to see rest, all be it, in a much bigger ship with way better food and wine.










You really know you're almost home when you first catch site of the Lions Gate bridge.









Once you pass under the bridge, you have Stanley Park with Vancouver in the background.











Seeing the Vancouver Convention Centre means you are only a few minutes from docking.










And before you know it, you're home.


Getting home was one reason for us to celebrate but there is another reason, one that has taken over a decade to complete and was only recently added to our bucket list.

Catch it in the next blog.
