First Few Days in Burnaby/Vancouver Area

      Bridge Prep

 As soon as the suspension bridge in Whistler went up, I knew I had to go. Now, to get ready for this, we hit up a couple of smaller suspension bridges. We went to Lynn Canyon, which has a small bridge, some trails, and a few areas to swim. This would have been great if we were wanting to swim, but we were just killing time until the Capilano Suspension Bridge Park hit its evening hour prices. Don't get me wrong, Lynn Canyon was pretty, it just wasn't what we were looking for at the time. Capilano Suspension Bridge was larger than the one at Lynn Canyon. The park also offered a lot of different activities, including a treetop walk, boardwalks, and a cliff walk. They also had some educational signage, and programs. As cool as it was, I feel I wouldn't need to go again. I got my fix. 

Stanley Park

Stanley Park is massive, and as we were on foot, we only got to see a fraction of it. The first thing we did was head over to the aquarium. This one was really cool, and very different from the one in Toronto. We watched Helen, the aquarium's rescued Pacific White Dolphin run through her training, while they explained her story, and the purpose for her training. We were also able see sea lions, penguins, and sea otters too! After spending time at the aquarium, we walked through Stanley Park towards the lighthouse, and the totem poles. With tired feet, we hopped on a bus to take us towards the SkyTrain, but before getting on, we had a brewery to hit up. When we were walking by earlier, we saw a sign about a taster flight that was 10 beers long. For what seems like obvious reasons, this was a must.
