Downtown Vancouver

Well I have been in Vancouver a bit over a week now. As I am fairly sure I mentioned in my previous post, I have been staying with my uncle and aunt in North Vancouver. I started working almost straight away (at a restaurant, till I find something else) so I have not had to many opportunities to get outside and take photos… until today, which was my day off. Vancouver is a very pretty cosmopolitan city… probably the most cosmopolitan I have ever seen. There really are all kinds of people here and being from good old homogeneous Merida, it makes for a nice change. The city is also very modern and has a very different feel to cities like Montreal or Halifax. My only major complaint is about how expensive it is here… its really insane. Vancouverites are very proud of their city, and they should be … but I have to wonder, for how much longer can these prices keep going up? I smell a bubble about to pop. Anyway here are a few pics, hope you enjoy them.

Just some street

Thats all for now!
