While waiting to disembark, all those needing wheel chairs met at a specific place for their designated time to leave the ship. So we all happened to meet again - after saying our farewells the night before.
We all had to go through customs to get into Canada. Then when we flew into Seattle, we had to go through customs again to get back into the USA. I guess we all looked honest because none of us had any hassels.
The DC family was flying back to Los Angeles and the RW family was flying back to Syracuse. But the RJ family had decided to stay one extra night in Vancouver so as not to have the hassle of dealing with all the other hundreds of passengers heading to the airport for their home destinations on Sunday. And it worked out well for us (the RJ family). We had two spacious rooms with a great view of the Vancouver harbor. RJ and CJ enjoyed watching the harbor traffic and taking naps while JW and DJ took a walk around downtown where people were touting their Vancouver Canucks shirts and signs since the NHL hockey was in the playoffs for the Stanley Cup. Thankfully we left town before they lost and made a mess of the city.
And it was very convenient that there was a food court below the hotel. We had to wait for about 3 hours for our room to be cleaned and ready. The customs place was across the street from the hotel and we disembarked at 11 am.
