My favorite "boat" memory going to Victoria was on the grand old Princess Marguerite from Seattle ... oh, I thought I was on an around-the-world cruise the first time I was aboard. Really sad to see her go and the Clipper just doesn't compare. WSFerries food is not my cuisine of choice ... never eat on board. If I'm on a long sailing to the San Juans or Sidney on Vancouver Island, I either eat before or bring my own on board.

Ferries food, although good enough, was perhaps better or at least the setting was. I remember my early love of restaurants drove me away from my schoolmates on a school trip abord B.C. Ferries to Victoria. This must of been in 1970 or '71 when I was in grade seven. I snuck away and went into the dining room that the ferries used to have, white linen tablecloths and waiters. I had enough pocket money for breakfast. No idea what they thought of this kid by himself enjoying being served with no adults around. It was a good experience since I've had to dine alone many times on trips and feel perfectly fine doing so. I hope I remembered to tip !Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
