Creator's Key Takeaways
We highly recommend taking the hop on and hop off tour bus. It's very affordable and it gives you a solid overview of the city without wearing your feet out.
Our whale watching was sadly cancelled this time, but we did it before and it was unforgettable. It was fantastic, which just made us want to do it again.
That was the highlight for my daughter and my wife was getting to see and meet the new puppies and hold them.
Not every cruise gets to go here. So, check your itinerary. I know Princess, Holland America, and Norwegian usually get to go here.
