National Gallery of London is free and it has an amazing world class collection!!

P’s good friend told us to definitely check out Oliver the musical at the Gielgud Theatre…. And it surely exceeds all our expectations!! We were both in tears clapping when the cast took their bow… We can’t believe why such a wonderful show didn’t come to US

The Theatre district is right next to China town, so we ate Vietnamese pho for lunch and Indian food for dinner…. Most crowded China town we have even seen lately

After dinner we ran into National portrait gallery and it’s another cool gallery that is free for all…… The museum tour guide is very unique

What a long and fun day….. Everything exceeds our expectations… Thank you London for being so special and captivating 🙏🙏

It’s been a while since we were last here… which was probably in year 2016… We were doing a crystal cruise from London to Northern Europe…. Cant believe that was almost 9 years ago…

We are again going on another adventure…. Flying from Lax to London… It was supposed to be a disaster if we did not caught the mistake yesterday that they duplicated our name twice 9n the plane ticket….. Luckily princess ez air fixed the problem quickly without us needing to spend more money to fix it…

So for now we are relaxing at united airs lounge which we have never been and let the adventures begin!!

This new airplanes has cool windows where you can adjust the light!!

Needs to wake up super early to catch a 3.5 hours bus ride from Vancouver to Seattle..  and then catch a 36 hour Coast starlight train ride from Seattle to LA. We have done this train ride before and totally enjoyed it

During dinner, they are playing the last waltz in the dinning car and that suddenly puts everyone in the mood…. The wonderful wait staff decided to perform the waltz for us…. We are over the moon😍

We did not plan anything today, just relax and get ready for tomorrow’s epic train ride… So this morning we checked out the famous Stanley Park and it’s seawall

The walk this morning helped us racked in 8500+ steps.. Yeepee

Whistler is a famous ski resort here and it’s only 1:45 hours away from Vancouver via Epic rides bus..Whistler is known for its skiing and snowboarding in the winter and mountain biking and hiking in the summer.

The drive there was scenic

We lucked out and reserved a hotel that’s within walking distance from the Port and they let us check in at 9 am in the morning 👍

Granville Island is a very very small island and full of charm….

Nothing much to report today…. Regular final day before cruise end events….looking forward to Vancouver tomorrow and the next phase of our extended trip… 3 days in Vancouver and then bus/train ride home to Los Angeles

We have been blessed with great weather so far until today..but all is good

This port is also a revisit, so we are going to take it very easy today….. Nothing planned except a crab feast at the famous George Inlet Lodge

First we visit the Historic creek street to see the picturesque wooden buildings that stand on stilts above Ketchikan Creek.

So on the way to George Inlet Lodge which is 16 miles away, we were surprised with a orca sighting by the bay as well as couple of gorgeous waterfalls

To think that  we are in the salmon capital of the world and did not eat salmon… No regrets though… We will come back for the crabs…..

Juneau is the the capital of alaska… We have been here once more than a decade ago and it did not changed much, the old town, the Mendenhall Glacier and the crazy tourism

We went for a whale watch excursion this time and it’s very cool…. To experience the environment that whales lives and fed
