1 What a difference a day makes. We continued to see Denali for 3 days straight.
2 We spent an extra day in Vancouver, BC prior to boarding our Island Princess. This is a great place to check out!
3 Don't look down! Actually, you're 250 feet above the river while crossing the 450 foot-long suspension bridge. And YES, it does rock!
4 Once across the bridge, we saw these vines climbing the redwoods looking for light.
