Travel and Vancouver

I am in Vancouver. Our flight ended up leaving 2 hours late, but arriving almost 4 hours late. I flew from Chicago with 2 of the 3 girls from my quartet. We caught the hotel shuttle from the airport and rode with 3 Filipino guys that will also be working on our ship. One was the head baker, one was the provisions manager and the third was a mechanic. The provisions manager has been working on cruise ships for over 20 years.
When we got to the hotel, we met up with quartet member #4. The rooms are big with 2 double beds. We went to a Japanese restaurant, and had sushi and other stuff. The hotel has free internet, but we are leaving at 9 to head out to the ship. Ship, not boat.
Internet on the ship will not be free, but rumor says it will be around 10¢ a minute. Either way, I hope to be putting up some pictures soon.
