My sense of time that it takes to get to any destination in this city, especially by foot, is still way off. Be sure to add extra time to that in case you seem to be carrying a hot beverage. This became apparent to me yesterday when I thought I would wander over to Stanley Park to take some shots of the skyline at sunset. You truly, have not experience Vancouver until you see the city during a good sunset. It’s even better when you have clouds back to the east with the sun being uninterrupted to the west. Plus, I’m just a sucker for sunsets. It’s damn near breathtaking.
My plan was to meet up with Rebecca when she got off work, somewhere in between there and the park. When I started to move away from the waterfront, I got lost in a maze of high rise condos. It wasn’t dire straights, but it was scary in the way that these things surrounded you. When in doubt, head towards the water, but somewhere in there, I had to find Rebecca. It was a bit messy, but we linked up without harm to either of us. There’s really not a lot to fear in terms of your safety in Coal Harbor, unless that chick in the lululemon track suit on the cell phone and her tiny dog like animal on the end of a leash could be considered “dangerous.”
