How do you reward yourselves for 40 years of marriage? It has not always been easy and we felt the need to splurge and celebrate our victory. We had never taken a cruise and weren't sure we'd like seven days afloat, but were we ever surprised! It was cool, relaxing and glorious. Our daughters surprised us with wine and gifts on our arrival and the ship's crew treated us royally.But it wasn't all ship time. We took side excursions: a float plane trip to a hunting cabin near the Taku Glacier, where bear cubs raided the salmon pit in broad daylight; panning for gold; a salmon bake; and high tea at the historic Empress Hotel on Victoria Island, Canada.
We can now highly recommend cruises and will definitely take another, just as soon as we recover from this one!
