We are off to Canada for the weekend...back to the beautiful city Jim and I were married in nine years ago: Vancouver, B.C. It's been way too long since we visited and we're excited to be going back.
Whenever we are in Vancouver, we walk. A lot. It's a beautiful city with wonderful sights, friendly people, and it's very pedestrian friendly:
One of the highlights for me (aside from having my husband to myself for 4 days straight in a beautiful little downtown hotel) is visiting the Vancouver Aquarium. It was the first place I ever saw Beluga whales. A new baby Beluga was born there just last summer. Her name is Tiqa and I can't wait to see her:
Here's a peek into the underwater world of the beautiful Belugas at the Vancouver Aquarium via their own personal Beluga webcam (<-- that's a link).
My mom and step dad have kindly offered to mind the farm while we're gone, so we leave things in excellent hands!
Have a wonderfully romantic weekend!
ReplyDeleteBut now . . . wait! Won't the Super Bowl be on Sunday in the cute little downtown hotel?
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful trip - I hope the sun is shining every possible minute.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great time. How nice to be with just hubby and you. I would like to go to Canada sometime with my family, I went a few times as a child.
ReplyDeleteOoooh, I'm so envious! I love Vancouver and spent some lovely vacations there. Even though I grew up on the other side of Canada, the two coasts are my favorite parts, except for the Niagara Valley in Ontario, which is also lovely.
ReplyDeleteHave a great time. I also love Vancouver and we had a blast there last summer. We got to see the new Beluga baby. Great experience.
ReplyDeleteHave a fantastic time Danni! I'm hoping you're taking your camera with you! (-:
ReplyDeleteThanks for this post on Vancouver, a city that's been on my list of "must visits" for a long time. It's just moved up a few notches with your recommendations. I especially appreciate the pedestrian friendly part. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteHave a great time, and take lots of photos! You know, photos of the scenery and such...
ReplyDeleteWell, gee. You really ought to take a side trip over to the Olympic Peninsula. Really you should. :)

ReplyDeleteHey! That's my town. We could have met for coffee.
ReplyDeleteI got married in Vancouver, too. I also got divorced here, but that's another story...
Have fun - the sun is shining for you!
