Some sort of text art in front of the library



Medieval looking mural



Canada Place

Pixelated whale



Grass covered roof (I'd hate to be the guy that mows that)

Bard!



AJ poster!



Pronounce that, I dare you



Totem pole inside the Museum of Vancouver



One of the many many harbors around Vancouver



Terry Fox



Capilano Suspension Bridge



Right before I knew what I was getting myself into



a nurse log



Lots of really tall trees



More tall trees



Looking down from up in a tree



treetop walk



Ridiculously tall flower



Falcon, though I don't remember the specific kind



Statues on top of Grouse Mountain. The basketball player should be curling instead, yes/yes?



Also on Grouse Mountain. Deer was too busy eating to notice a bunch of people standing only five feet away. Closest I've ever gotten to a deer that wasn't running in front of my car.



The Vancouver Death Star!
Okay, actually just the science museum.



Lego car!



Lion's Gate Bridge (this was the only photo I had time to snap on my blade around the park)



Bald eagle's nest



Bald eagle in a tree. In downtown Vancouver. I was fascinated, so I circled the tree trying to get the best view.



Yearlings. Noisy little buggers.



Eagle #4 in the same tree. Bald eagles are like men, they go "bald" as they get older.



More art. There's a lot of it along the seawall.



Seat of British Columbia's government.



The Empress, ritzy hotel in downtown Victoria



Stained glass orca



Craft vendors along the pier



Darth Vader playing the violin.



Me and a moose



Totem poles inside the Royal BC Museum (sorry it's a little dark, I didn't want to use a flash



Sunken garden. Part of the Butchart Gardens



This fountain did all sorts of things, it was fun to watch.



This is sort of how I picture George, except with grey fur instead of leaves.





The Inukchuk. (You may recognize it from the Olympics.) It does exist!



Seals!





Seals will stare at you.



More bald eagles





Whale!











Baby whale!





Sea Lions. The wet looking one kept getting shoved off.



Crooke shot of Vancouver. I couldn't get a straight one because the boat was so bouncy.



Bye bye Canada :(
