August 9, 2011 (8/9/2011) Taking the Wonder to see the AMERICAN CHILD

[Rat-a-too-ee]

We decided to change our excursions a bit. We decided to do the Whale tour with Harv and Marv in Juneau because you get to go in a very small boat, and also the times just worked out better for us. I'm so excited!

That sounds really good. What times does that excursion run (I couldn't tell from the website)?

Also, anyone booking with Dyea Dave in Skagway?

Test results are in for Mom and it was a mild stroke. So glad we got her to go to the hospital. Hopefully she can come home tomorrow. She hasn't had any more incidents since yesterday.

I'm so glad to hear she's been OK since yesterday. It's scary when a parent is in the hospital.

Hi Kaitlin! One of my DDs is 14 and we also happen to be staying at the same hotel (Fairmont Pacific Rim) for the three days pre-cruise like you and your family! Hopefully you will see each other.

My mom told me that. When do you guys arrive? We arrive on the 6th.

We arrive on the 6th also! We should be at the FPR hotel by 1pm. So excited!!

I am glad you now know what you are dealing with. I am so glad you got her to the hospital too. I hope that she doesn't have any more incidents or lasting effects. I have kept you both in my prayers.

Hi everyone... We are getting close!!!!

Two Questions:

1. I have reservations in Vancouver @ Fairmount Waterfront as well as the Pan Pacific. Which should I keep?

2. Should we bring Canadian dollars for incidentals and tips?

1. Which is less money?

2. No, US currency is accepted everywhere, or it was last time we were in Vancouver.

Mom is home and has new diabetes meds. The visiting nurse is supposed to come by and see her (she said she didn't need this in the hospital but she is coming anyway). Let's hope this is the end of the "incidents'.

Their website doesn't say what the times are. You have to email them or call to find out what is available! We are going from 12-3:30.

Where are you guys coming from?

 

[Perdita&Pongo]

Where are you guys coming from?

Well, we live near Chicago. We are traveling from there to Victoria for 3 days before arriving in Vancouver for another 3 days before the cruise.

1. We are staying at the Pan Pacific. We made the reservation months ago. The rate was less than the Fairmount. Can't get a better location than the Pan.

Anyone else staying at the Pan Pacific?

2. We will be bringing Canadian dollars.

Did the FE list get sent out yet? I was thinking someone said they get theirs.

ETA- Never mind! Apparently my DH ( that would NOT be DEAR) husband received it, but didn't find it necessary to tell me.

So glad to hear that she's been released. I hope everything works out.
