Cruising the Fraser on the Native
Yumi and I took the Skytrain down to New Westminster late this morning to see if we could snag a seat on one of the $5.00 special Fraser River cruises on the Native paddlewheeler.
It was overcast and cool, so we had no trouble getting tickets for the noon cruise. I really enjoy getting out on the water, and the views were spectacular, especially as the sun began to break through. Here are a couple of photos:
The huge cranes at Fraser Surrey port.
Returning to the Quay at New Westminster.
We walked all the way home under clear skies and a hot sun -- a trek that took one hour and fifteen minutes -- and arrived soaked in sweat!
