After disembarking from the cruise ship (a very painless, quick process this year), Ben, the kids, and I got the opportunity to spend another day in Vancouver before heading back to Dallas on Tuesday. Thankfully, we were allowed to check-in to our hotel room at 9:45 a.m. and rest a bit before tackling the city. After lunch, we went to the Capilano Suspension Bridge Park. It consisted of this very long and wobbly bridge, as well as a "Cliffwalk" and a "Treetops Adventure."
A very shaky and wobbly bridge, which we experienced with quite a few people. ;)
gorgeous view
Walked decided to nap on the shuttle ride up the mountain, so we got to experience a grumpy and clingy Buddy for a bit before he officially "woke up."
Treetop Adventure
(We walked along bridges suspended between platforms that were built around the trees.)
Whenever Ben sees a small house/shack/tiny cabin, he tells the kids that it will be their "new home." So they took the opportunity to explore this one and check it out! :)
the kids on the Cliffwalk
Scary Cliffwalk!
Lainey took this picture of us. Pretty good!
Lots of saluting happening since the cruise!
Walker's face. :) Ha!
"Takin' pictures is so bow-in' (boring)." But honestly, everything has the potential to be "bow-in'" to Walker. :) And he's not afraid to say it, either!
The view below!

Ben took this picture of the kids the following morning, just before we woke them up to head to the airport. Lainey is sleeping near Dinosaur-y and Walker is sleeping near Lainey's Alaskan Minnie Mouse. :) So hard to awaken them when they are SO passed out!

Thanks for treating us well, Vancouver and Alaska! We had an unforgettable vacation! And thank you to Bud and Yiyia, for giving us the opportunity to create some amazing memories with some of our favorite people! The experience was truly magical...and we are forever thankful!
