Vancouver - Yaletown

Our October visit to Kitsilano, included a walk to Granville Island Market. This stroll provided Murray and me an opportunity to snap some urban pictures. Here, from Granville Island, we look over False Creek to Yaletown.

Telegraph Cove boardwalk

After spending a few days in Sointula, our drive home took us past the Telegraph Cove turn-off. Why not have a look we thought. It was a good thought. Although it was February and the Cove was all but deserted, the visit was worth it. I hadn't known exactly what to expect, but the boardwalk was very interesting. The history of the place is well documented on numerous signposts.

Port Alberni - Get-away on Cheeyah Island

On our October journey with the MV Frances Barkley from Port Alberni to Bamfield, our first stop was Cheeyah Island. This seemed like a pretty posh get-away in the middle of nowhere. At this stop, the skipper pulled alongside the dock to drop a passenger off.

Bamfield - Sorry, No Coffee Today

Having stepped off the MV Frances Barkley a few minutes before the monsoon-like rains started, I strolled along Bamfield's seawalk  to this location. A coffee shop in the summer, I reckon.

Bamfield - Walking the seawalk

We're in Bamfield, walking the seawalk. In the rain. Of course! The MV Frances Barkley had just dropped us off at the dock by the Canadian Coast Guard Station and what should occur? We're in Bamfield. Rain. Actually: monsoon.

Vancouver - Yaletown (Vancouver) seen from Granville Island

It may be November, but the sun flushes Vancouverites outdoors. An ideal spot to soak up some rays is out on the dock at Granville Island.
