Review summary

We had a lot of fun, but because we know the area pretty well, I can't call it the trip of a lifetime. It was still a good cruise though. It was nice to "sail home" so to speak.

We had a great time in Long Beach before we embarked. I highly recommend Catalina Island, Queen Mary and the Aquarium of the Pacific!

We'd been to San Francisco before so there we took the duck tour privately. We also went shopping.

We went on a boat tour of the lake and the loch. We did a lot on our own too. It was nice to have time to see Pike place, the space needle and the monorail.

Victoria, British Columbia

We went on a pub crawl. My husband had a good time, but I don't drink beer! I think I would have preferred to just go on our own.
