Capilano Swing Bridge

One of the iconic attractions of Vancouver is a mere 20 minutes bus ride from Canada Place. When you arrive city disappears as you step out of the bus.

A creek running from the mountains has cut through granite over centuries and created a narrow gorge. Late 1800s saw the first swing bridge and now it has become a favourite place for visitors. Lots of nationalities... we counted over 10 different languages!

This was our first hints of the ‘wild’ of Canada with tall fir trees, thick moss cover, lovely ponds, clear flowing water and fresh mountain air.

Across the creek was a winding pathway, a treetop adventure and wonderful hints of the forest. We were even visited by a cheeky little squirrel, intent on stealing any tidbits. We discovered BEAVER BALLS [mini pancakes with maple syrup]... you just had to try them!

A delightful afternoon!!Baca selengkapnya
