Walking Around Downtown Vancouver, British Columbia

The City of Vancouver covers 44 square miles.  Eric and I will be getting a feel for the city as we walk around downtown.

A motorcycle cop
directs traffic..

 

We hear sirens &

 motorcycles speed by.

Followed by black

town cars

Eric thinks we'are watching a funeral procession.  They are travelling fast for a funeral cortege.

An SUV

Followed by what looks

like some sort of

tactical truck.

OK... OK...  This is some sort of government entourage complete with a mini SWAT Team.  The procession goes on and on until....

A police car speeds by

& the motorcycle cop

takes off.

The show's over.  Let's continue our walk.

24 Train Express

Noodle House

Nesters Market 

Metropolitan Towers has

luxury apartments for rent.

foodness is a great name

for a store. 

The Orpheum Theater

Eric pointed out the section

of the skyscraper that doesn't

conform to the rest of

the building. 

Doolin's Irish Pub

The Vogue Theater 

Plaques for Canadian

stars on the sidewalk

in front of the Vogue.

Everyone's in a hurry... 

Some people get around

Vancouver on scooters

& bikes.

A Canuck Flagging truck

has equipment for 

lane closures. 

The Penthouse Night Club

We walk through a

construction area.

There's a lot going on in this small section of downtown.  I could spend the entire day hanging out here, but I won't.  We are headed across Burrard Inlet to spent time with Ilene.
