Stanley Park – Granville Island – Spamalot

After we left Vancouver Island we headed to Vancouver for a couple days with Dean & Judy. On Monday morning Dean & Judy headed to Burnaby to look for new furniture for their house. They are just finishing up a home renovation that started back in June. Brenda and I headed of to walk the Seawall around Stanley Park.

Here are a couple pictures of us at Siwash Rock, in the first you can see the tide was out and it was great opportunity to get down near the rock.

This above picture looking back towards English Bay and False Creek, at this point you are about 7km around the Seawall, as you can see the day was spectacular. If you have never done the Seawall Walk you really need to the next time you are in Vancouver. Of course Stanley Park is named after Lord Stanley who was Govenor General of Canada and who donated the Stanley Cup Trophy that NHL teams compete for each season. Tuesday we went off to play 18 holes of golf at the Stanley Park Pitch and Putt. A short par 3 course that is perfect for a couple hours of golf, laughs and fun. Then off to Granville Island for the afternoon for lunch and to sea the sites. That evening we took in the Musical “Monty Python’s Spamalot”. It was everything you would expect from a Monty Python (Eric Idle) Production, you had to really be paying attention or you miss some of the humour. 

Wednesday we headed home to Kamloops and Dean and Judy stayed in Vancouver for a business conference. More adventures and blogging later.
