North Vancouver Quayside

Rode the Skyrail into Vancouver for the afternoon and evening. Found some nice folks to walk Jo for us while we were gone so we could stay and eat dinner out. Had an outstanding day! We rode the Seabus over to North Vancouver had an ice cream and got back on the Seabus and went back to Vancouver proper.


Gastown Steam Clock



Walked around Gastown and then through Chinatown, ending up back at Gastown at the Old Spagetti Factory for dinner. Bosco put in our name and they said it would be about 20 minutes. While we were sitting there waiting a lady come up to ask us about the wait etc. She put their name in and we talked a bit before they called our name. The hostess showed us to our table and it was a table for 4, so Bosco went back and asked them if they'd like to join us. They were on a cruise, and had a couple of days portside to see Vancouver. They agreed to come join us and the four of us had a great dinner. We sat and talked and talked. Turns out they are travelers also; having been to many of the same places as we have. It's a very small world.
