May 20, 2011 - We slipped under the Lions Gate Bridge very early in the morning and were tied up along side Canada Place by 7:00am.  The weather was gorgeous with clear skies and the promise of warm temperatures.  It is amazing how quickly seven days pass on a cruise ship.  We had great weather, wonderful workshop participants and a crew that really looked after all of our needs.  While Jan and I took no ship excursions and simply prowled around our own, we came back to land feeling refreshed and relaxed.  We are now looking into a northbound cruise sometime in 2012.
