Well it is official...Vancouver is my favourite city. Stayed last night downtown and early in the morning ran the sea wall around Stanley Park....then after a coffee...By the way I think I found the city's best cafe....I walked the town..West end, Robson st, Granville Island and markets...bought some wild boar and blueberry terrine...the gallery area...trees orange, waterways smooth as glass, mountains touched by snow...from downtown you can be on the top of the mountain ready to ski down in 30 minutes and the fields are floodlit open to 11 pm.
