Sabotai does the PNW: VANCOUVER, (Part 1 - PRISTINE)

pris·tine/ˈprisˌtēn/Adjective
1. In its original condition; unspoiled.
2. Clean and fresh as if new; spotless.

Pristine is a word that comes to mind when visiting Vancouver. Its glimmering towers of glass, surrounded by majestic mountains are truly a sight to behold.

We had to nerd out when we found the Stargate monument in the Science Fiction capital of the world.

the first picture pops it from the start, and those giant birds ... i gotta see em. it's ridiculous that i've been in the PNW over a year and haven't been to vancouver yet.

and that sears ... yowza.

I'm not gonna lie, I've been waiting for your Vancouver pictures.

Funny note about Vancouver being the Science Fiction Capital of the World. I've never really thought about it, but yeah, a boatload of Sci-Fi TV series and movies have been made here. I even worked on a few; Stargate, First Wave and Dark Angel.

I think almost all the Scifi shows I watched from the last 15 years were filmed in Vancouver. X-files, Sliders, Stargate, Battlestar Galactica, the 4400, V, the Outer Limits...
