On the Spirit Honolulu to Vancouver BC cruise they had pan of fresh baked cinnamon rolls next to the hot cereal station in the buffet.  They were small but delicious.  Had a couple breakfasts in main dining room and a couple in The Local but my preference was the Garden Cafe for cinnamon roll, oatmeal, two sausage links, hard boiled egg and some sort of fruit.  Breakfast of champions.

That’s incredible! Sounds great!

Look for Darryle Hannah

On the way to the next stop. She’s riddling us with facts about how to catch the cable car when we’re done, how the bus can’t get that closed etc…. She may know her stuff, but maaaan she’s making this feel like a job

Tons of buses here. Logging license plate for posterity. We aren’t allowed any water on the bus either. 
 

Can we bring our Stainless Steel water cup?

Not on this lady’s bus… but playing dumb has its virtues

Ironic that they don't want anyone to spill water in the bus, yet the bus drenches itself.  Maybe the driver doesn't like the boss and doesn't tell him, then everytime the boss inspects the bus after a trip he finds it drenched and blames the driver for allowing drinks on the bus AGAIN.

Club 69 might be a good place to check first (if approved by B).

[TxTeach79]

Not a ton to see headed back across the island…

We had a guide like that on our last cruise.  By the end of the tour I was so wanting her to shut up...please, just two minutes of quiet to look at the amazing view and think my own thoughts.  Didn't happen.  I felt like I'd been beaten up by the time I got off the bus.

Followed the guide’s instructions to get the dome pics…. I managed these but between the heat and crowds that’s all I wanted to muster. B stayed back and didn’t come this way, probably the right call

 

 

When I was walking around I overheard someone saying the churches have the blue domes.

[TxTeach79]

Passing back through Fira (where the cable car is).. there are some nice small resorts here. Hard to get any pics as we fly through, but they’re there…. And the pools look absurdly inviting 

 

 

[TxTeach79]

She just told us that at the next stop there is a bit of a climb, and given the dangerous temps she recommends water or don’t go. I guess there’s a store?

 

oh, she also chastised someone for talking while she was talking 

[TxTeach79]

I wonder if the English tour guide is nice

 I guess AC drip is a courtesy.

Yes! I told him that even Party P needs rest. 😅

Yes, but they don't listen!

We just made the climb. That was tough. A good chunk stayed back. We finally made it to this top landing but she yelled at people for sitting down because the chairs are for cafe customers only

I may sit under the drip on the way back

one couple who was really struggling tried to sit anyway, and the lady from the cafe ran out and booted them

Catching up on pics from the hike up
