We were very fortunate to find a very low priced cruise leaving out of Long Beach and going to Oregon and Canada.
Here we are on board the ship. We were really spoiled for 7 days. We relaxed, had fun, enjoyed wonderful meals, great shows, interesting ports and made wonderful family memories.
Mommy and Lily in the Black Pearl Dining Room. The food was delicious.
Here we are in front of the Columbia River Maritime Museum in Astoria, Oregon. The museum was interesting and we all really enjoyed it.
Lily and Christian enjoyed their huckleberry lollipops outside the Maritime Museum. Astoria is a very charming little town with many beautiful old buildings.
This bridge crosses the Columbia River and connects Oregon to Washington. It's an unusual looking bridge and I just had to have a picture of it.
We really enjoyed our stop in Victoria. We toured the city and got to see many beautiful gardens. This picture was taken at Beacon Hill Park in Victoria Canada. After visiting Beacon Hill Park we went to a petting zoo and then we went to the Marina to feed the leopard seals. An otter showed up and we fed him too. Then we went to the top of the mountain to enjoy the view and then it was time for lunch.
After lunch we walked around down by the waterfront and visited the wax museum.
We saw many totem poles on this trip. Here's Christian, Alex and Lily with another totem pole near the waterfront.
The kids enjoyed the towel animals that our cabin steward made for them.
Here we are in Stanley Park in Vancouver, Canada. It is the largest park in North America. It's huge and really beautiful. There's a lot to see and do here and we barely scratched the surface on this visit.
We enjoyed lunch at a restaurant in Stanley Park and then we did some exploring before going to the Vancouver Aquarium
We played miniature golf up on the top deck as our ship left the beautiful port city of Vancouver.
Christian and Lily had a lot of fun at Camp Carnival.
Another great meal on the ship
