About Vancouver
Vancouver sits on a harbor with the North Shore mountains standing right behind it, which is a strange and lovely thing to see from a ferry deck. Stanley Park fills the tip of the peninsula with old cedar and a seawall that people walk, bike and skate around in all weather. It rains a lot here, and nobody seems to mind much, because the clouds lift off the water by afternoon more often than not.
