Activity date: July 2010.
Energy level: 2/10.
Approx. cost: $0.
We headed to Montreal to visit family, then on to Halifax, Nova Scotia.
We headed down to the wharf to take a ride on Theodore tugboat. On the web, the tour company claimed that they go out rain or shine. It was moist, but nothing to deter people from Vancouver.
When we tried to buy tickets, they told us that they weren't sailing that day. They had made a judgment call in the morning based on forecasts of stormy weather. The ticket seller felt sorry for us, and when I asked if it was possible to go aboard she shuttered the kiosk and let us walk around on Theodore.
The weather cleared a little. We went and played with the anchors and other hardware outside the maritime museum.
I have been to that wharf three times now, at different times of year. It seems to always be raining.
