My title reflects our previous cruise to the Mediterranean on the Brilliance. Before this cruise, that one was my hands down favorite. This may sound corny, but words truly cannot describe what a fabulous time we had on the Radiance of the Seas! Nevertheless, I will try my best to tell you of our adventure.
This cruise was for our 30th Anniversary and we also stayed three nights post cruise on Waikiki Beach. We arrived in Vancouver the evening before and stayed at the Pan Pacific hotel. This was our second stay here and it is a perfect place as it is literally at the cruise port. Our luggage went directly on the ship courtesy of the Pan Pacific. We were a little nervous about this process, but it worked out great and we would do it again.
We took the hotel elevator right down to the boarding area and this is the only part of the process that could have gone swifter. Perhaps we picked a bad time but it took around 45 minutes to get through customs and board the ship.
