Saturday 14, 2018 – V2V Ferry from Vancouver to Victoria.\u00a0 We got the good deal “Buy one get one free” royal tickets which include lunch and drink on board.\u00a0 This V2V company is new so there was not that many customers.\u00a0 They’re lucky to have our party of 28 people on board.<\/p>\n

Checked out at the Holiday Inn hotel around 11 AM; and took a taxi to the Canadian Place where the V2V ferry departs (its location is right next to the Convention Center), which only 5 minutes away.\u00a0 The port is beautiful!\u00a0 Some of our group rented the bikes to ride along the port and they said it was a very beautiful ride.\u00a0 Too bad that it’s one way for the bikers so to finish the whole circle would take 45 minutes.<\/p>\n

The ferry left at 1:00 PM so we didn’t have much time; we took William on a stroller and leisurely walked along the waterfront while feeding him a hot dog that Tim bought in the morning at a convenient store near by the Holiday Inn hotel.\u00a0 We checked in most of our luggage when boarding so we didn’t have to carry them along which is easier for us.<\/p>\n

Boarding was easy and fast because there was not that many customers beside our big group of 28 people.\u00a0 The boat is new so everything is very clean; we got the window seat which William loves!<\/p>\n

Soon after the boat left the port, they started to serve lunch.\u00a0 Because we bought Royal Customer ticket, we did not have to pay for lunch, drinks and snack (for beer you can order 1 time free of charge but after that you have to pay).\u00a0 I ordered for William Meat & Cheese; as soon as the dish was placed in front of him, he picked up the bread and ate it.\u00a0 He must be very hungry!\u00a0 Then he had some chocolate truffles and apple juice.\u00a0 But that’s all he ate, he refused to eat cheese or ham or potato salad.<\/p>\n

3 hours on boat was smooth.\u00a0 The men in our group was having so much fun eating and drinking beers.\u00a0 Our group occupied the whole top level of the boat!<\/p>\n
