On Sunday we had
brunch with Jerry's niece |
 |
|
Michael dropped us off in Chinatown after brunch |
 |
|
A bright display of foodstuffs, dried fish and herbs |
 |
|
Lanterns in an entryway |
 |
|
lead to even more within |
 |
|
Bright colours everywhere |
 |
|
even the street signs |
 |
|
We visited the Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Park |
 |
|
It was beautifully laid out, |
 |
|
a peaceful retreat beside the Chinese Cultural Centre |
 |
|
We walked from there to Gastown. Because of the weather, Vancouver has a large population of homeless people. There are piles of their belongings in many places on some of the streets |
 |
|
This streetcorner
was full of people hurrying |
|
|
|
Gastown is full of restaurants and tourist shops |
|
|
|
The Gastown Steam Clock |
|
|
|
Winged Victory |
 |
|
We stopped for a drink at the Pan Pacific |
 |
|
and watched the water traffic for a while |
 |
|
As evening fell, we continued west along the seawall |
 |
|
then stopped in for dinner at Carderos. |
| We spent our last day in Vancouver
back at Granville Island. I picked up a few things from Opus Art Supplies and Paper Ya, two of my favourite shopping places. |
