Weekend in Vancouver 1/3




Vancouver has been one of the destinations we wanted to go. Lucky me, my current work is in Seattle and we decided to go to Vancouver over the weekend. After the work on Thursday, we drove a car for 3 hours to Vancouver by passing the border line to Canada. No visual difference between the U.S. and Canada except some traffic signs are in meters not in miles.
I have been still living in the east coast time zone, so woke up early like 6:30 and opened the window - AMAZING view from the hotel room (Westin...) It was rain over night but the rain cleared out by the morning and the air was so crisp and clean. You can really see the green, red and yellow in the trees.
I needed to work on Friday, but we went to lunch close to the hotel, and found this beautiful tree on the way back.
After full day of working, on the way to the dinner, we found TWO rainbows and interesting building facing the ocean (I am not sure it is ocean or not but it is open water to ocean so it has to be) - all the buildings look like build last 5 years by the same architect - floor to ceiling glass type building.
It was just a beginning of our fantastic trip to Vancouver.
