yes, yes we do! i've done the walk from Burrard Street Bridge to Science World many times whilst listening to the slower Stevie Ray Vaughn and Kenny Wayne Shephard songs on my iPod.

^^ Nice. I decided to go the other way towards Granville Island, as I think I've had enough of that area until all the current building facades are done (I have over 2GB of pictures from the area within the last 6 months).
There was a bunch of things to take pictures of close up (dogs, people, art, etc), but only had a telephoto one with me...which needs at least 2M distance to focus

Great pictures. You've shown the essence of why Vancouver ranks so high on the livability scale year after year.

Well I took over 600 pictures in the last week or so, but I don't plan to add them all. I don't use flickr all that much due to the hassle of uploading and finding the links to post pictures.
I need to find a host that allows bulk upload and doesn't have a dubious copyright policy and allows direct linking.
