Rockies were indeed spectacular, but we saw more eagles in Alaska. Both will do.

In fairness to some of the companies, if they are in a quality assurance scheme with 3rd party accreditation, a requirement of the standard is continuous improvement. The cheap way of measuring that is a customer survey.

That was our retirement present to ourselves. Calgary to Vancouver staying at Fairmont hotels, Rocky mountaineer, Alaska Cruise. Majestic scenery. No silly tourist stuff for us...oh no.

They could hang up great big cotton sheets. The wind would catch in the sheets and pull the ships along . I doubt that would catch on.

I bet you thought your friendly seagull had come home.🤣

We stayed at Jasper park lodge. Brilliant, also on our way to Van conversion(stupid computer, I typed Vancouver) to join a Celebrity cruise. Look what turned up outside our room.

18-20 sounds like a heatwave at the moment.

Sometimes you come across ..." I'm off. I'll never post on here again "..2 pages later...guess what.🤣

Don't worry. IoW hasn't changed much in the last 30 or so years. Some parts need to as they are looking a bit ...neglected.

Please tell us when you post it. We are on Anthem in September.

Well Vamps, your Children are perfect...smiling, or asleep.🤣

You dog frightened him all the way down to Weymouth.

That was funny...I say, that was funny.🤣

We didn't have any problems. I am on Android and DW is apple. I think Mr Punch must be Microsoft as....oh no he wasn't. 🤣

Seems that a couple of decent days and we are all off to the beach. We have been lucky with the weather at Weymouth, so will stop off at Swanage on the way home tomorrow. Normally they have punch and Judy.....all together now....oh yes they do.🤣
