Stanley Park is a park next to downtown Vancouver (where I was staying). It's one of the loveliest places in the world with a zillion points of interest. Okay, maybe it's more like twenty (according to this map anyway), but I didn't even have time to visit them all! Seagull, Noldy, Pingu and I spent most of our time at Vancouver Aquarium (which is inside Stanley Park), but afterward we walked around the park. Here are some of the photos I took there.
The trees! They're so beautifully red!
A trolley from the Vancouver Trolley Company wheels past us. You can go on sightseeing tours on these (we didn't, though).
Salmon! Mmm, salmon.
More Canadian trees.
This is the Lions Gate Bridge, which we saw as we walked down Stanley Park seawall.
From across the shore, you can see giant piles of sulphur on the opposite bank.
This sculpture is called "Girl In A Wetsuit", and was done by Elek Imredy. It was inspired by the Little Mermaid sculpture in Copenhagen.
These are some of the totem poles you can find at Brockton Point in the park.
Here are some more totem poles.
These totem poles are a major tourist attraction at the park.
Next we set off to the Lost Lagoon, with a big sploosy fountain in the middle. After sitting there for a while, we set off to look for dinner.

Lovely beginning of fall colors, I miss the various seasonal changes and how the landscape changes also. It makes things more interesting and not the usual boring routines.
