20th January – Vancouver, Canada

We awoke to a beautiful blue day in Vancouver. Days like these are very few and far between so we decided to get out and walk around the city and enjoy the sunshine. We could look down the end of the street and see the snow clearly on the mountains. We headed up to Vancouver Lookout which is quite high and provides 360 degree views of Vancouver. The ticket let us up in the day and also let us come back in the evening to see the city lit up at night. The lookout was also interesting because it provided history on many of the buildings and areas around Vancouver, which is relatively young. Photo’s of Canada by the day looking out towards the mountains (Grouse, Cypress and Seymour).

Photo’s of the city.
In the evening we headed back up around 8.30pm not realizing that the tower was closing at 9.00pm. After a quick call to upstairs (they had already closed the lift) we got in and made it up for a quick wander around the tower.

The little bit of white towards the top of this photo is Grouse Mountain lit up for night skiing.
We still think of all the cities we have been to, Vancouver is one of the most beautiful, although we're not sure the day photo's really do it any justice.
