Day 2: Waffles at Le Petit Belge, walk across the Cambie bridge, bus out to the Museum of Anthropology at UBC. Cab to Granville Island where we had some lunch at Tony’s Fish and Oyster and wandered around. Dinner was sushi with a friend who’s moved out to Vancouver, it was lovely to catch up.<\/p>\n

Day 4: Breakfast at Gutenberg’s cafe by the library, a loooong bus\/travel saga (there was an accident on the bridge, so we had to bus back down and take the SeaBus instead) to Grouse Mountain. We had some lunch at the cafe and admired the view. Dinner of delicious takeout sushi from Tsuki sushi bar.<\/p>\n

Very last outing of the trip was a walk to fancy bakery Thierry<\/a> for macarons, a croissant, and tea. Then over to English Bay for another fireworks display! It was a lovely end to a great trip.<\/p>\n
