Vancouver

28 & 29 July:   Vancouver – home to 2.26 million people.  We had two days here.  Saturday we did a city tour in our coach with John the driver, Jeanette our Canadian tour guide and Sherrie the WorldMark representative.  Our group consists of 24, which is a good number as it leaves us plenty of room to spread out in the coach.

Lots to see in this beautiful city and we are staying right in the middle of town.  The weather has been very nice so far, and locals and visitors are all out, walking, jogging and cycling.

Sunday was a free day, so we did some shopping and a lot of exploring around town, eventually making our way to the seawall and walked to Stanley Park, where we boarded a paddle wheeler for a cruise on the harbor.
