Millennium Line














We drove in to Burnaby to Cariboo RV Park, which I had never seen - very nice, to see Roger and Myrna. Then we all went to the Sky Train and took the Millennium Line out through New Westminster and right to downtown Vancouver to Waterfront. This is the old railway station with beautiful ceilings and art around the top. Next we got on the new line and rode out to the airport. It is mostly tunnel and you see it coming back in, looking down Cambie Street. You cross the over the Fraser River on 2 bridges, then tunnel under False Creek. We walked up Granville to see the ice skating rink but it is not active anymore. There were lots of buskers and fun on the street corners. There was tea at the Art Gallery which is wrapped in a floral print. The site of the old Devonshire Hotel is wrapped in a Canadian flag left over from the Olympics. We ended our afternoon having a bevy at the picnic table.
