10.14.13 : stanley park.

Apologies for yet another brief hiatus. I moved to Avon, Colorado this week and found myself neck-deep in all the the chores that come with a move. More on that later.

For now, I've reached my day spent in Vancouver's Stanley Park…a beautiful 1,001-acre park that borders the downtown area. While we didn't have enough time to walk around the entire park, we did spend a good portion of the sunny afternoon on its paths, enjoying the sights, which ranged from fall colored trees to fearless raccoons.

10.13.13 : granville island.

If you ever find yourself in the Vancouver, BC area, I highly recommend that you make every effort to visit Granville Island for a day or even just an afternoon. I first went there two years ago and it’s become an essential stop on my trips above the border ever since.

Beyond the fact that it holds a favorite brewery of mine that brews one of my all-time favorite [seasonal] beers, it also grants a pretty spectacular view of the city. Oh…and a magical indoor market with every kind of mouthwatering delicacy you could possibly want to procure for yourself. Seriously. There’s this bakery there that does a salted caramel apple focaccia that will have you licking the bag it came in. Or maybe that’s just me.

Regardless. Go there. If my words don’t convince you, maybe my photos will.
