My daughter Angie and I had plans for the afternoon, but did our own things in the morning. We had booked a boat ride out to look for wildlife in the afternoon – specifically whales and were excited to go. We left early to make sure we made it on time and ended up with… Continue reading Winnipeg to Vancouver – Day 6
