Dwarfed by Mountains, flanked by rainforest and soothed by the sea, Vancouver cannot help but be a stunning city. Our impressions, after another short stay, is that the environment creates a vibrant, cosmopolitan atmosphere that is not dampened by the re-occurring moisture.
We took a quick cultural and environmental snap shot of this west coast city, hoping a third, more sustained visit will be possible in the future:
A reflection of old and new |
The Art Gallery - a surreal experience. |
A large blue rain drop - even more surreal. |
No old flames here! The 2010 Olympic cauldron. |
City skyline from the ferry. |
Entry to China town. |
The beautiful and serene Sun Yat Sen gardens. |
Four equally content but not as beautiful diners. |
Hanneke suitably dressed to view the Steam clock. |
Hanneke suitably perplexed by this Lenin (with Mao on top) sculpture. |
Hanneke suitably wobbly on the Capilano bridge. |
More people suitably wobbly on this amazing structure. |
Stunning view of the rainforest |
