Oh oh, Sierra, we almost missed dinner! Glad we got here just in time!
Sierra will have the Ahi Tuna, please, and I'll go with the Mushroom Risotto with a side of Market Fresh Vegetables!

It's virtual, Sam! You can have dinner every five minutes if you want!


Where we are for dinner, we have THE best sunset view in the city, looking out on English Bay. It's quite awesome. I wasn't able to find us a sunset shot
And the staff knows how to be present immediately and ONLY when we want them
So we can sip (or guzzle) in peace, until we want to take off. I'm suggesting similar activities to last night's evening stuff, and I'll add Gastown back in, since it seems to be popular (why am I not surprised?)

http://www.seegastown.com/

The man for whom it is named is “Gassy” Jack Deighton...

Anyone who wants to can head back to the Pan Pacific. The hotel has many facilities. Anyone for a swim?

Unfortunately, the spa won’t be open until March – you’ll just have to come back


For anyone who wants to party the night away, your choice of Vancouver night life...

http://www.vancouver-nightlife.com/

If anyone’s looking for something else to do, or wanting to take off on their own for a couple of hours, here are a few more things you might want to see...


Grouse Mountain

http://www.grousemountain.com/welcome.cfm

If you’re not “shopped out” yet, the shops will be open...

http://www.discovervancouver.com/shopping.asp

Or, if you’re into science, Science World is great...

http://www.scienceworld.bc.ca/

You might also find other places to explore here...

http://www.discovervancouver.com/GVB/index.asp

and if you’re looking for a midnight snack, you could do worse than pizza from our favourite, Flying Wedge...

http://www.flyingwedge.com/home.html\t

try that Pepper Dew – it’s awesome! (Though God alone knows where anyone would put it!!)


...but don’t forget we’re off to Medicine Hat next. I think Ashley may be coming to get us late tonight. I hope everyone has had a good time in “Super Natural British Columbia”.

Fran, I just wanted to say thanks for having us here in Vancouver - it has been so much fun and I'm so happy I got a chance to be here!


The hotel looks lovely!

Fran,

Eventhough I wasn't around too much this week, it was awesome from what I could tell. Thank you for showing us around this beautiful city!!!

Aw I've only got an hour before I have to be off TCS for a few hours. So those of us who have been shopping in Gastown, it's time to show off what you have purchased!


Fran - Jenny.
