Vancouver BC

Jake and I went to Vancouver over Veteran's Day weekend. We took the train, which was beautiful going up. Coming home was a completely different story though. Vacouver is very walkable and we walked everywhere. There was a little taxi boat service that got us over to Granville Island and that part of town, but we walked the rest. The weather was pretty cold, but I hear it was worse here at home so I can't complain.


Here are some of the photos I took from the train.







We went to China Town on Sunday and most of the stores and restaurants were closed, but we went to the Asian Garden and walked around there for awhile. When we walked in it was kind of disappointing because all of the photos that I saw online were obviously taken during the Spring and Summer when everything is in bloom. A couple was getting married there when we got there. We also saw the skinniest building in Canada or the world, I don't remember. It is one room wide.

A Beautiful Fall Day

It was so nice today, I finished up some yard work that I had been putting off. This is the first year that all of my plants have flowered. Yea! And with the weather so up and down they are very confused and still flowering.
