A Weekend in Vancouver

Last summer, Jen and I flew up to Vancouver, BC for a quick weekend trip. It turned out to be a great little adventure.

We stayed downtown, and visited the Museum of Anthropology at the University of British Columbia, Lynn Canyon Park, VanDusen Botanical Gardens and we ate some delicious Korean and Japanese food downtown.

We had a great time escaping the record breaking heat in Colorado and exploring Vancouver for two days. Vancouver is definitely the kind of place I can spend a few days and imagine myself

living permanently. Between the culture, the water and the mountains, it’s probably my favorite city in North America.
