Walked around Fort Langley on Sunday. Nice little town, a frequent filming location.

Fairly recent development, about 12 years old now called Bedford Landing. Houses are set close together and not set too far back from the sidewalk/streets.

looking south to the main strip downtown, 15 years ago most of downtown had dozens of empty lots, a few still exist but most have been filled in with faux heritage buildings that are a mix of retail and residential.

The bridge to the island, prior to the Golden Ears bridge that links Langley and Maple Ridge, you had to cross the bridge and island and catch a small ferry otherwise go west to the Port Mann and than double back.

Just noticed the skid marks across the painted pedestrian crossing... ugh. Why do some people bother with that?

Great photo share overall though. I had no mental images of Fort Langley. Thank you!

Great pictures. Now I kind of regret not checking out Fort Langley when I was in Langley last year.

yeah, Ft Langley is part of the bible belt, there are many many mega-churches in the area and can be a bit conservative and intolerant. Otherwise, it's a nice little place to go for a walk, with lots of little shops and cafes and the old Fort which I have actually never been to, just seen it from outside the fence, a giant wooden fence surrounds it.

Montreal in summer. Across the country there is probably no finer city to be in during these rare summer months.

From my FB memories, 8 years ago today... love this angle:



These five buildings aren't actually in that alignment (Confederation Building, Roman Catholic Basilica of St. John the Baptist, Benevolent Irish Society, Anglican Cathedral of St. John the Baptist, Supreme Court of Newfoundland):

What a crazy good page of city photos! It’ll be hard to go wrong picking any one of these cities featured here for the next holiday. Funny how the the air costs are somewhat insignificant now (although far less predictable in terms of service) and hotel costs are exorbitant compared to a decade or so ago. Looks like Montreal would be the most affordable in terms of accommodations.

Ok, here’s a few Victoria photos from this summer:

Deer blanket the city, I pretty much see them every single day and I live on the edge of downtown. A favourite hangout for them is Ross Bay Cemetery:
