June 19, 2023 Vancouver cruise day

Woke up super early this morning. By 6am we headed down to Starbucks to get a drink. Then back to the hotel to the pool deck to wait for the Wonder to arrive. We finally saw the ship coming in around 7am.

We headed to Monaco Cafe for breakfast. I had a London Fog and Vanilla Cruffin.

After doing some people watching we went back to the hotel to pack up our bags and call for them to be picked up.

We tried to go for a walk while we waited and it started to rain and it is cold (low 50s), so we went back to the hotel. We saw on Facebook that people were getting checked in at the port, so we headed down to get checked in. Once we were checked in and had our pink wrist bands. We went down to customs then over to the waiting area for boarding to start. By 11:45 we were boarding the ship and headed to Tiana’s for lunch. I made my usual Salmon Salad and welcome aboard sundae.

After lunch we walked over to the shops and saw them restocking items. We looked on the windows and started making a list of what we want to buy when the shops open.

Then headed up to deck 9 and sat in Cove Cafe area and waited for our rooms to be ready. It was still raining, so didn’t really want to sit outside too long.

In our room we looked at our new platinum gifts. A nice bag, beach towel and water bag. They even have new lanyards out

Did the safety drill no fun having to go stand back at the stations. The videos were much better. Our safety station faced the Pan Pacific. After the we went back to the room to enjoy sailing away. It was still raining so we stayed on our balcony.

Time for dinner we headed down to at Tritons. Our table had a view of the windows outside which was nice we could see things go by which was nice.

After dinner we hit the shops to get the new Alaska blanket. It is really cute and super soft. They have a better selection of souvenirs this year.

We decided to go back to the room and watch Avengers Age of Ultron.
