Back in Vancouver

We arrived in Vancouver on Tuesday to a wonderfully warm sunny evening and got a free upgrade on our car (yipee!). We went up Harbour Centre Tower and got an amazing view of the city before a cheap and cheerful dinner. Yesterday we went to Granville Island which has the most wonderful foodie market and got supplies for a picnic lunch and tea, then it was on to Stanley Park and its beautiful beaches and even a swim in the sea. I love this city! In the evening we joined about 300,000 Vancouverites on a walk to English Bay to see the Chinese entry for their fireworks competition - a truly spectacular display. We're now packing up our room (amazing what a mess we can make in 2 days!) and heading off for our BC tour.
