In this episode, we follow Rob’s 1990 journey aboard the P&O Pacific Princess, where he served as a marine fitter, navigating the technical demands of sea-going maintenance while traveling to the stunning Hawaiian Islands and on to the port of Vancouver. In Hawaii, Rob caught glimpses of paradise as the ship docked, with its lush green landscapes, dramatic coastlines, and vibrant harbors—all briefly enjoyed between shifts spent ensuring the ship’s mechanical heart ran smoothly. Arriving later in Vancouver, Rob experienced a stark contrast to Hawaii’s tropical warmth. Though his stay in Vancouver was short, the city’s bustling port, set against its dramatic mountain backdrop, left a lasting impression. This episode captures Rob’s unique perspective on these two destinations—one rich with island allure, the other with urban and natural beauty.
