IT IS IMPERATIVE YOU MAKE THE PILGRIMAGE TO THE HOME OF RBOB AND MAKE THE REQUISITE SACRIFICES TO THE ALTAR OF RBOB. ONLY THEN WILL YOU BE ALLOWED TO LEAVE VANCOUVER ALIVE. YOU ARE ALSO ENCOURAGED BY THE RBOB CHAMBER OF COMMERCE TO VISIT THE RBOB THEME PARK IN SQUAMISH, THE RBOB MEMORIAL IN STANLEY PARK, THE WORLD'S ONLY MEMORIAL TO THOSE WHO HAVE NOT YET DIED BUT ARE DESTINED TO DIE DURING THE RBOBOLUTION AND IN ITS AFTERMATH AND FINALLY THE BC MARIJUANA PARTY HEADQUARTERS DOWNTOWN.

We hit up Granville Island, but we're not too into art. It was a cool experience though, I loved the street performers.

I posted it all in the pics section. We hit up Grouse Mountain, Capilano Suspension Bridge, Yaletown, UBC, Chinatown, Granville Island, and Stanley Park. We had a pretty full schedule seeing as we were only there for 3 days.

*vancouver* aquarium you mean. yes it used to have a bit of a zoo attached to it as well. there was a polar bear exhibit that you could have seen for free too, but we got rid of that quite a few years ago unfortunately

Err...truth be told my sigs are ridiculously simple; most of them I just resize a photo and type in dxlightning in the corner, as I did with this one. I haven't used anything more sophisticated than paint on any of them.

Heh, wow i'm learning about my city (semi-joking). Well although it's probably on every tourist pamphlet and it may have been mentioned here, i'm restressing STANLEY PARK! You have to spend some time there, it's a really nice place, and right close to where you're staying as well. And for sure take the sea-bus to Lonsdale Quay, it's like 3 bucks, a nice little ride and good atmosphere. If you need to get to any malls and such, the skytrain is great, although I'd avoid rush hour times. Granville Island was also a good suggestion, do it or Lonsdale, they're quite similar. And if you're at all interested in skiing, or seeing where the 2010 olympics will be held, make the trip up to Whistler (as has been suggested), but that'll be an all day thing. Enjoy our paradise for a few days NavY this was navy's last post...
