My friends were there to greet me when I arrived at the airport. Between the three of them they managed to show me the sights.
I was invited to a Thanksgiving Dinner. The mother of the house had a lot to be thankful for. Her son had a horrific car accident in May this year. The doctors had brought him back to life again 7 times and here he was sitting with us at the table. Sometimes miracles do happen.
These are some of my photographs from my trip to Vancouver. Vancouver has the best of all worlds. The mountains ... the parks ... the Pacific Ocean ... the great city ... the bays ... the beaches and the people.
the Photographs working down are

Wood sculptures on Grouse Mountain
Mountain views
The city condo's
View from the top of Grouse Mountain
