Alaska Cruise – Day 7 (Somewhere At Sea, then in Victoria B.C.)

Ahhhh…. The joys of vacation! Today, owing to the time change, I slept until 9:30 a.m.! I haven't slept past 7:15 since I got on board.

Today's biggest highlight – nothing much. Probably arriving in Victoria, even though I didn't intend to go ashore there.

During the time we were at sea, we could feel the temperature rising hour by hour. By the late afternoon, I was wandering around in my raincoat (it was still a bit drizzly) but with no sweater underneath.

I even got to spend a couple of hours sitting on deck reading and writing in my travel journal! I'd tried it earlier in the week but it was far too cool.

I'll bet I've walked 30 or 40 miles this week, between shore excursions and the multitudes of trips around the ship (four laps of the promenade = 1 mile). It's lovely to walk somewhere where the scenery is always changing.
