We are on the Empress right now (spending extra time in Richland as the current is too high to get to Clarkston). The dock in Vancouver is right in the revitalizing Riverfront Park (about 8 short blocks straight down from the hotel). We easily walked down there to check out the wine bars and new hotels/condos under construction.

We are on the American Empress right now. They allow smoking in some area (I'm not sure where up on top), but I haven't smelled smoke yet (thank goodness). Absolutely no smoking on the balconies. Yay! FYI last night they had to cancel Clarkston (we're Portland to Clarkston) due to high current on the Snake.
