Vancouver

Saturday 8th June
Well I took the bus to town and got my new cell phone number. Visited the Museum of Anthropology for a couple of hours. Very modern and well laid out. Then some lunch at a local cafe followed by a bike ride. (30 km) I did a big loop along the coast and through the suburbs. Some really good signposting of cycle ways.

The suburbs were all well established with tree lined avenues. Now it's about 6 pm so I'll find a Hell Pizza shop and have dinner.
30km

Sunday 9 June
I'm still on NZ time, awake 1/2 the night!
Just got in from 4 hours out on the bike. Rode along the waterfront cycle way into the city and around Stanley Park. Thousands out enjoying the sun, though still quite a cool wind.

They have a shared walkway/cycle way all around their city waterfront. Lots of cafes, parks, people sailing and flying kites.


I'm meeting up with Nelson tomorrow. He is one of the cyclists who joined us on the European cycle holiday last year. 
48km
