Stanley Park Ride

Day three started late, finding both of us sitting in bed for over an hour at 1am, not able to sleep. So we slept in and got to breakfast well after 10am. Then given the fact that it was day three of clear skies we decided to hire bikes and tackle the ride around Stanley Park, Vancouver's notable entry point by water.

Vancouvians were out walking, jogging, blading, skateboarding, cycling, sunbaking... even swimming... anything to soak up the gamma rays missed over their long cold winter. We kept telling them we just brought Brisbane weather with us. It was 22 degrees, a typical winter's day in the Sunshine State.

Sheree and I stopped plenty of times, massaged some butt, took lots of photos and generally enjoyed the moments. We celebrated going under Lion's Gate Bridge, the greeter of many cruise liners over the years.

These Canadians love the sun. They love being outdoors and seem to naturally relax. We fit right in. Our muscles, on the other hand, are going to take some time to get over the rude shock of cycling for three hours.

An afternoon well spent! Czytaj więcej
