Vancouver to Japan cruise/Trafalgar tour - #10 - September 26 to October 23/2017...


On Sunday, October 15th,  again there was heavy rain.  We walked over to Wendys (you can see Wendys from the hotel room) for breakfast (just about the same price as at home) and then walked around downtown for about an hour and a half.  Jim Beam whiskey is sold at Wendys.....
Then came back to the hotel for a rest….  And then walked around the hotel annexes (lots of high end stores and restaurants) for about two hours. 

Then we went for dinner at Satsuki, a restaurant located right in the hotel.  I had a hamburger deluxe with a beer ($30).   We noticed that every restaurant had a basket under the table, to hold purses and parcels.  Also, we noticed that lots of Japanese like cake in the restaurant.    

The Japanese like to decorate manhole covers.  We met the Trafalgar tour in the hotel at 7 o’clock that night.  There was a tour guide and an assistant, both with good English.  They had a little dinner - sushi and deep fried vegetables with a green tea alcoholic dinner -  in the Kato restaurant in the hotel.
There was only 17 people on this tour (lots of Australians) so plenty of room on the bus.
