Capilano Suspension Bridge

This was our last big activity for our Vancouver stay. Capilano Suspension Bridge is a 450 ft long swinging suspension bridge. There is a whole park built around it with three bigger attractions/trails. First, we did a trail called Cliffwalk, which is a path on the edge of a cliff. There were some breathtaking views, and the information along the trail taught all about the effects of water on the rocks and trees. Then we did the suspension bridge. Ari was fine to walk along the suspension bridge, but as we got to the end, she informed me that that was the scary part as we were getting to the top. On the other side, there was one more trail called Treetops Adventure.
This one was very neat as it was a series of suspension bridges from tree to tree in the forest.
While we were on the Treetop Adventure trail. Ariella pretended the rubber mats at the beginning and end of the bridges were slides and "slid" up and down them on her butt. Chris took Atlas around to all the characters to give high 5s.
We had to walk the bridge back to the other side, and Atlas was not happy that I made him hold my hand, as he insisted that he do it. In his most shrilling "I do it" voice. Despite that slight hiccup , this was a fun way to end off our Vancouver visit.Read more
