July 5 - Stanley Park and Downtown Vancouver












We decided to drive to Stanley Park because public transportation does not extend into the park. They used to have free shuttle service within the park, but they do not have it any more. It was lovely and had such a variety of sites and things to do within the park. I do highly recommend it to anyone coming to Vancouver. Most touristy things are very expensive - $35 and up. That has kept us from going to Victoria and doing a lot of other things. If we had it to do over, we probably would not have stayed a week. I miss the national parks in the U.S.A. Three more nights, and we will be back into the good ole U.S.A. I am looking forward to it. I miss my Droid, too. Vancouver is truly lovely with its location on the sea and surrounded by mountains where there is no sea. We made another stop at Home Depot on the way back to the campground to pick up something else Phil needed for the leaky faucet pipes(tubes). They were totally out of what he needed, so he picked up something else he hopes will work. He said he does not feel confident, especially after we bounce and bump on our road trips. I am praying it will do the trick.
