Vancouver, B.C. Trip

It won't go down as one of my favorite trips, but there is definitely no question Vancouver is a beautiful city. Traveling out of the country on a holiday weekend was not the best idea: the border crossing was horrific. A relatively quick two and half hour trip slowly turned into a four and half hour headache; I think I'll chalk this up as a rookie traveling mistake.

Bike rides into and out of Stanley Park with Emilia; walks along the promenade; Robson street's European-style oasis (tons of shoe shops, banana and Nutella crepes, Zara, seemingly everyone speaking a different language); late night drinks in the lobby—not bad for a one day vacation.
