Hey everyone!
Well just filling you in on the last couple of days. Basically I just explored Vancouver which is a pretty cool city. On Tuesday I caught the bus to Stanley Park. A massive park on the peninsula near downtown Vancouver. Was so pretty and awesome, there was a free shuttle so not lots of walking for me! Went to the aquarium there too, wasnt really worth it but the dolphins were cool!
Then the next day I took a walk down to Canada Place on the harvour which is basically like just a convention centre like ours. Then onto Gastown which was basically an upmarket Fremantle. It has this famous Steam Clock and I was expecting this massive thing, but its only about 3 metres tall! After Gastown I headed to Granville Island. Which is where I caught that cute little Aquabus Ferry! It was like a couple of streets of markets and fresh groceries and a food court. Really cool just to look around :).
Then on Thursday I started with the lookout. Its a 360 degree lookout on the top of one of the skyscrapers in downtown Vancouver. Awesome views of the mountains and residentail areas! After that I walked to Chinatown which I must say I didnt like so left quite quickly. Then shopping!!!! Took the skytrain to Metrotown which is a massive shopping complex like Garden City really. Good shopping here, things are quite cheap!
And that basically concludes my time in Vancouver..awesome town. Tomorrow my tour starts!
