This morning we had an incredibly private experience of the Capilano Suspension Bridge Park…getting there an hour ahead of the usual tourist pack. So we could wander and take in the beauty before the crowds descended! It was awesome, old soaring Douglas Firs, waterfalls and babbling river coursing through the valley.
Then, onto Stanley Park, over Lionsgate Bridge to see the imposing Inuit totems.
We got deposited on Granville Island and we wandered through the public market and surrounding precinct for a few hours. Found some lovely earrings, Honika’s Atlantis collection…like the underwater island of myth and legend, the iridescent and velvety blue colour is fantastic!!
Walked along the English Bay sea wall until the Inukshuk sculptures and then to photo the very entertaining laughing man sculptures a bit inland. Decided to walk back to the hotel and discovered West End, out and proudly gay friendly judging by the rainbow decoration everywhere.
I love Vancouver, could move here in a heart beat….got all the elements of Melbourne….food and cultural variety, water, public transport and parks….gorgeous!!
