Chris and Tracy said that August-September is the driest time in the Pacific Northwest. It's actually more like June-September, reliably dry.

[@askarealtravelexpert]

Thanks for the update.

[@BrianBray-hf6jj]

Tracy is lucky to have Chris there to finish her sentences for her.

Tips included?

American Cruise Lines, aren't they the parent company of Pearl Seas? My sister and I enjoyed superb cruises in the Pearl Mist. Cuba, and Toronto to Portland thru the St Lawrence seaway.

[@askarealtravelexpert]

They are thanks for the reminder must look to see which one of our experts has sailed with them.

[@joelt5680]

Would be cool if they docked in Vancouver to see the Fort site and Officers Row.

[@askarealtravelexpert]

Yes that would be very cool.

[@alkunze7187]

New England cruises

Another great itinerary that they do.
