Enjoying Vancouver

7/4/2016

I'm really enjoying being back in Vancouver, after 26 years. This is a lovely city, visually appealing with lots of trees & art works. The people are very friendly & helpful to strangers. Unfortunately there are a lot of homeless people which is sad and they are pretty assertive about approaching you. Some are pretty harmless but others are clearly under the influence and make it difficult to think about wandering around on your own at dusk.
Yesterday we wandered about Chinatown, Gastown, the waterfront and the financial district which was great for architectural shots. Today we walked down to Granville Island which was fabulous; essentially it's a farmers market on steroids with the addition of an art/tourist/gift shop component and attracts 10 million visitors a year.
Next stop was a visit to the University of British Colombia to have a look at the First Nation art.
We have been trying to fit in as much as possible for our last few days but we are all exhausted and looking forward to heading home tomorrow, but not the journey itself.

    Yes, this is me.
    Most  photogs prefer to be behind the camera and I'm no exception.
    So this pic is rather old having been taken at a Ceroc ball in 2012.
