Last day at Sea June 25

The time has flown by and we now had our last day sailing up the inside passage.
It was a beautiful sunny day and so we had breakfast out on the deck. We had met a great Australian couple a few days before so enjoyed lunch with them and then attended a wine tasting in the afternoon. There were 5 wines, so called premium and we enjoyed a large glass of Cloudy Bay which we hadn't had for ages.The other wines  were also good quality including a California Petite Syrah and a good BC Chardonnay which of course Lloyd wouldn't drink so after 6 glasses of wine I was rather sleepy. This meant that I needed to lie on the lounger in the sun and have a little snooze to get ready for the evening.

That night we had a speciality dinner at the Pinnacle Grill and enjoyed a huge plate full of king crab legs. The food was lovely but we found the servings huge and we couldn't eat dessert. I think the eating and drinking had caught up with us. 
We had enjoyed the cruise and met some lovely people but it would have made a difference with improved weather. However as the captain said "You don't go on an Alaskan Cruise to get a suntan"
