Ben on his skateboard
Being back in Vancouver was nice. It was fun seeing all our old haunts, visiting friends, and viewing all the changes in and around the city- we sure don't miss the heavy traffic and all steady honking. Sirens went off constantly too- Ben kept saying, "Someone's in trouble again".
Joelle's house that she rented while going to school was torn down and replaced by this one.
Shangri-La. Tallest bldg. in B.C., $350 million to build, Vancouvers deepest excavation of 85 ft., 62 stories- housing a hotel, office's, condo's, grocery store, spa, and art gallery.
