Although we've never mentioned it, there were some pretty interesting people on board our ship. Alex Trebek, for example. (Although we didn't actually make friends with Alex.)
We did become friendly with two couples, one from Salt Lake City and one from Las Vegas.
In fact, during our overnight in Vancouver, we were walking around the Canada Day celebration (with 50,000 other people) when we bumped into the SLC couple, who happened to be staying at our hotel (the Westin). Late that night, we ended up visiting their room with a bottle of champagne to watch the fireworks outside, over the harbor.
Just yesterday, we received the above picture via email, taken one day during lunch with friends at the pool bar. The pic made me laugh because I can see by my shirt that I am still in what I referred to as "my pajamas and boat slippers" (a pair of blue Keds). It was my habit early every morning to throw on a pair of sweats, this blue fleece and my slippers before heading out onto the deck for coffee and a view. I remember the day in the picture, because at 1:30, I still hadn't gone back to the suite to get dressed ---- everything was just so exciting. (I kept saying to Anthony, "I'll go get dressed in a few minutes....")
Anyway, the pic was a nice reminder of how much we enjoyed the people on our cruise --- almost as much as the scenery.
