Tour 3 - Bits of Vancouver
So last stop was a brief 1 hr flight to Vancouver. I'm gonna skip Banff and Lake Louise cos its all over my blog elsewhere. Don't be lazy go look.
Vancouver's changed quite a bit since I last stayed there 2 years ago. It's cleaner (prob cos of the olympics, new buildings have sprung up, mainly condos and most noticeably, its more crowded and damn more expensive! I think the Chinese have taken over it. Not so nice.
Anyways one must stop place is Granville Island with its shops and famous public market.
Lots of food, pies and pies and holy cow, Curry Puffs! but it's called Chicken Curry Pockets, there are also Dino Bones for the those who like to gnaw...damn big bones...
All over the downtown area there are bears, reminiscent of cows that once dotted Singapore's landscape, but these are way cooler...
But the best bit was in the evening, we went to this place, it the middle of somewhere quiet area of downtown. The only place in the world with 218 flavours of Gelato....I had a chocolatey pistachio yummm.
Couldn't take pics inside so you will have to be happy with this postcard. :P
