Oct. 8th, 2002 12:16 amDid some sightseeing today (well, yesterday as I write this) in downtown Vancouver and checked out what I thought was a pretty cool suspension bridge in northern Vancouver.
The suspension bridge was at a place called Lynn Canyon, which is a fairly good hike (and keep in mind this is coming from someone who jogs anywhere from 3-4 miles a day, 3 times a week). Could also be that the air was thinner than what I've been used to (don't know what the elevation of that particular place is), so I felt winded and tired sooner. Got a few good pix of the area, however, and the water was quite clear there. I think it probably gives a good idea as to where bottled mountain spring water comes from.
Also checked out downtown Vancouver and got a couple of pix of the convention center there. It's also where cruise lines dock, but I didn't see any cruise ships in port today though. It was also overcast with some light rain all day today, so the pic-taking wasn't all that great.
Tuesday will pretty much be a dead/down day since nobody else is really available to show me around. But Wednesday should be a different story. Not that I'm complaining about Tuesday either... it'll give me a chance to relax and unwind, and maybe do some laundry and/or begin repacking even though I don't fly back until Friday.
