paddy Anne Posted May 17, 2008 Author #10 Share Posted May 17, 2008 We are both usually red wine drinkers and enjoy many of the California cabs. Have you guys thought about any wine excursions in the different ports? We want to stay in San Fran while there but otherwise want to see the wineries. We are heading to Vancouver the Saturday before as we have never been. So much to do and so little time. cheers, paddy Anne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J&and&D Posted May 17, 2008 #11 Share Posted May 17, 2008 we will be most likely arriving in Vancouver on the 11th ..still need to find a hotel.. there is a special lady that is a member of another forum we belong and post to on cruising ...wants to meet for lunch.. so we will most likely take the sky tram metro thingy out to where she is on the 12th... As far as wine excursions.. no not yet we are just starting to talk about what to do... in Monterey and in Astor ... David loves Beer so we may do the beer thing in Astor.. This Vacation is just to get away for a while and to celebrate David's recent promotion... I am sure once I get a chance to focus on this cruise I will be able to converse on the many wine options... do you have a particular good one to share for Monterey?? all suggestions are encouraged!!

paddy Anne Posted May 18, 2008 Author #12 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Hey Joey, We are staying at the http://www.pacificpalisadeshotel.com/. as are a bunch of people on our cruise. I friend of mine in the travel business says it's a great place. I am reasearching Seattle this Am. There is a tour called the Underground Tour where you actually go underground and see the city that the city was built on. looks touristy but interesting. Then there is The tasting room- Wines of Washington. This also looks good. Of wourse I wouldn't mind going to Snoqualimie falls. I will have to keep reading. cheers, Paddy Anne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
