We had a relatively smooth transition to Rhapsody. We bumped into some friends in the waiting
area and had a nice visit. They were
boarding Radiance, however, so we won’t be seeing them on board.
There was actually some sunshine in Vancouver, but we didn’t have the opportunity
to do any sightseeing. We settled in and
took a tour of the newly refurbished ship.
She’s absolutely beautiful!!!
What an incredible job they did – at a cost of $52 million. The Centrum is breathtaking, complete with
chandeliers that come down from 7 stories up with aerial artist performances. The rooms were also redone. They’re so nice now.
Then we realized Captain Rob was the new master of the
ship. He’s our all-time favorite
captain. His dry sense of humor is
entertaining. He even recognized us, as
he should since we’ve had the pleasure of dining with him several times. We’ve seen a lot of other staff members who
also remembered us from our 39 nights on Rhapsody in Australia. We were sad to learn that Captain Stein has
left the company, however.
The next day was our sea day, and it was a wild one. We had a strong side wind which causes the
ship to awkwardly pitch. It turned into a Bonine
and green apple day for me. By afternoon
it was all better.
Next stop – Juneau
and the whales. Stay tuned…
