Travelin' Shoes

 Last week I had my travelin' shoes

buckled on and Running Man and I

 headed off to Vancouver, BC.

We stayed in a condo right in downtown (Gastown)

 on the 38th floor with a terrific view

of the harbor and the mountains to the north.

We crisscrossed the city,

enjoying the aquabus ride

to Granville Island even on a very rainy day, and

 the food booths brimming with tempting eats at the Public Market.

 It was a foodie extravaganza 

Stanley Park

was a must

along with the 

 Vancouver Aquarium with

the beluga whales.

A day trip to 

Capilano Suspension Bridge

was fun inching our way

over the swaying cable bridge 

that stretches across a river canyon

and then enjoying the elevated

 tree trail through the cedars and Douglas firs.

Then a ferry trip

 over to visit Victoria,

 the capitol city of British Columbia.

Despite a little drizzle

we wandered passed the century 

old Empress Hotel located on the harbor,

enjoyed some wonderful local fish and chips

and the lovely coastline of the island.

It was a great trip to Vancouver, but you can't 

ignore the happenin' street food scene.

So with the help of the Food Truck Tour,

we ate ourselves silly.

From Japadog

to TacoFinos and more.

 

It was delicious way to spend lunchtime.

 We only had a few days to explore this beautiful 

area rich in multicultural experiences,

and we had to leave so many things out,

but I guess,

 there's always next time.

Happy Travelin'

Until Next Time-
