Working on a short trip report, but two quick observations: 1. went on 5 Star Whale Watch (big catamaran) because they seemed more comfortable (i.e. we don't want to be out in cold weather)and saw a huge pod of orca. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Thumbsup.gif" alt="" />
2. everyone DID take US$, except for Red Fish Blue Fish. Waited in line for 30 minutes for excellent food, but were told "We don't take foreign currency." I thought it was a political statement, but I enjoyed my salmon and smoked tuna belly anyway! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" />
