Vancouver in a Day

When we stayed up in Birch Bay for a week of walking, reading, hot tubbing and relaxing (will have to do a post about that place), we did do two daytrips. One of those was up to Vancouver, British Columbia. We first stopped for dim sum in Richmond.

Kacey enjoyed watching the strange morning aerobics on the TV behind us. Tak Heng was were we ended up and it was full of locals. OMG, so tasty, but we ordered too much food!

After that, we went to the aquarium. So terribly overrun with kids; wished we'd happened upon an "adults only" day. You'd think with kids back in school it wouldn't have been so bad. You'd be wrong.

Between the screaming kids and the small, sad tanks for the marine life, we cannot actually recommend a visit. However, the jellyfish sure were beautiful.

Afterward, we walked the length of the seawall. Yep, the whole thing (and then some).  

 Saw lots of birds and even a playful seal. Beautiful flowers in Stanley Park. All in all, a very nice day.
