Vancouver Aquarium

On our final full day, we visited the Vancouver Aquarium as our little treat to B.  She had been such a good sport going to a cold location for her Spring break.  We must have heard it twenty times, "Everyone is going to the beach on their Spring break, but MY parents think that skiing and being cold is our Spring break."  I'm pretty sure that seeing the whales, jelly fish, octopus, fish, and other sea life made up for the "cold" weather vacation location!
Vancouver Aquarium where the jelly fish were electric!

Even the fish were sad that Megan wasn't with us :(

Vancouver White Caps Game

After an exhausting, but fun, day at the Granville Island Public Market, Greg was able to score tickets to the Vancouver Whitecaps FC soccer game.  They played the LA Galaxy and we were treated to a tense match in which Vancouver won.  So much energy at this game!
Never knew how much fun a soccer game could be!

Vancouver - Day 1 at the Granville Island Public Market

We landed late Friday night in Vancouver.  Being on West Coast time, we woke up way too early.  With the entire day ahead of us, we decided to start off at the Granville Island Public Market.  What a great choice!  The market reminded us of our own Westside Market or Philly's Reading Market. So many interesting stands filled with delicious foods.  I think the pasta stand was my favorite because each pasta was crafted like art.

While at the Granville Island Brewing Company, this was a "stag" or bachelor party.  The groom is dressed up as a girl with pigtails (reminded me of the Foo Fighters video) - too cute of a picture to pass up!
I love trying out a new or different Bloody Mary while traveling.  This one didn't disappoint, but my favorite is still in Austin!

Such a good picture of them outside the Granville Island Public Market

How cute is this? Old silos.
Loved the Granville Island Public Market.  Just look at how delicious everything is - pasta, baked goods, fruits and veggies.  Yum!
