Vancouver.....

I went to Vancouver the first weekend in August - my son has decided to move there and we were looking for an apartment for him. We found him a great place - a block from the beach. There was also a fireworks festival on that weekend.... the picture below is looking from English Bay out onto the Pacific Ocean - a block from where my son will live.



I also went to the Museum of Anthropology at the University of British Columbia. They have a wonderful exhibit of First Nations Art and I learned quite a bit about the Haida culture.





I really enjoyed my time in Vancouver - I walked around the city quite a bit and really enjoyed the older houses that have been fixed up. They have been declared Heritage Houses.

Nothing is more important than reconnecting with your bliss. Nothing is as rich. Nothing is more real.

It looks beautiful, I wish I had a view like that from my house let alone an apartment.

We visited Vancouver briefly a few years ago, we liked it, I hope your son enjoys his life there. What a great view!
