Excellent shots! I'm starting to appreciate Vancouver architecture more and more for some reason. It seems that we just don't look upwards enough!

Coal Harbour/downtown is significantly more interesting architectually than the rest of Vancouver. False Creek is still super monotonous and getting uglier by the year.

VanTowers · #**1165** Posted **Jun 14, 2009, 9:30 PM**

Coal Harbour is very impressive. But I would much rather spend the day walking around false creek. So much more to do and see.

Plus the Erickson is really going to improve the Yale town sky line. And the Athletes Village doesn't hurt much either

Great pics, guys.

Where did you come back from, Del?

Put up a bunch of pictures of my own, but they're of Xiamen, China and Taiwan. Check 'em out.

Grabbed a few shots of the DT skyline from the top of one of the Olympic Village buildings.. sorry for the poor quality its just from an old point and shoot.

I was thinking of stitching these together to make a little pano but frankly I don't know how. I shot the pics by hand, so its probably not even possible anyway.

I thought development on mountains was forbidden with Growth boundary in place?

This was the scene down at Canada Place today for Canada Day celebrations. Being not so keen on large crowds/large mobs of people I didn't linger long and went on my merry way:

And some other random photos from today...
Tourists flocking around the steam clock:

You don't see too many cars from Hawaii! The last one I saw was a few years ago in LA:

Yume-sama · #**1179** Posted **Jul 2, 2009, 8:05 AM**

How did they get a car from Hawaii to Vancouver...

Canadian Mind · #**1180** Posted **Jul 2, 2009, 3:57 PM**

ship it via boat?

Based on the writing, I'd say they are expat hawains now living in Minnesota on a trip to Vansterdam, and haven't changed their plates yet.
