Beluga, MS Ryndam

Had a swim and jacuzzi. At breakfast in the mall Liz said Ann had said there is a baby beluga white whale at the aquarium so we went to the Tourist bureau and they sold us tickets and gave us bus directions. We saw the whales, sea lions, sea otters and dolphins. Fantastic aquarium in Stanley Park with tropical displays and local sea life. Bus back to town and in good time to check out and walk over to the cruise terminal. Saw Ann and Paul in the immigration queue - going into U.S. for Alaska. Great to see them both again. Our cabin on the bottom floor and it has 2 portholes. This proved an advantage as when there was any rolling we did not get it very much. Ann and Paul's a similar size but inside on top decks. The suites with windows and balconies look fabulous but really no need to pay so much as we spent all the time out of the cabin! The food is plentiful and fantastic! Did a tour of the ship to get orientated - it was good it was 1700 - those 3000 capacity ships would be pretty overwhelming. We saw a couple on the journey. Holland America line is excellent.
To show in theatre in game show style which wasn't that great! Booked excursions without any problem.
