Wheeling Around Stanley Park
|
 |
|
Stanley Park is Vancouver's famous urban paradise and I knew
weeks in advance that I would need to explore it in detail, preferably on a
bike. So this afternoon at about 1:30 pm I set off from the UBC Campus, and
navigated my way downtown by bus, taking 3 buses to get to the eastern edge
of Stanley Park. This was my first chance to glance at the city of
Vancouver. It is a relatively new city and according to some accounts, its
origins date back to 1792 , the year when Captain George Vancouver explored
this region.

Grouse Mountain Experience |

No visit to Vancouver could be complete without a real
mountain experience. So after covering the Servas conference I left at 2 pm
for downtown. To get to Grouse Mountain was quite an experience in itself, I
got to take 2 buses downtown, then I boarded Vancouver's light rail rapid
transit system, the Skytrain, which runs underground downtown, just like a
subway. Then I hopped on the Seabus, a regular ferry that connects downtown
with North Vancouver.

After my extremely interesting walking tour of the Downtown
East Side I decided to round out my exploration of the city with another
bicycling trip. In my mind, bicycling is just the perfect way to discover a
city, it gives you greater range than walking, you don't need to wait around
for buses, and you get exercise at the same time -bonus!
