It's CANADA DAY!
Excellent, full day of celebration, beer, laughs, dancing and adventure. No need for much commentary, just enjoy.

Oysters and caesars at Joe Fortes Seafood and Chop House. 
Olympic flame near the waterfront and Canada Place. Huge celebration!
Piece of the Vancouver skyline from the waterfront.

Railway bar for $3 beers before 3:00 pm! - oh, and lunch.
Quick-ish stop at Malone's! Parties everywhere!
Dinner and festivities at Blarney Stone in Gastown... Happy Canada Day! 150!

Cheers to Canada!
Great band at Blarney Stone!

Yes, that is a giant penis on the dance floor. There was a bachelorette party running around Blarney Stone all night with it!



Sunday, July 2nd
We took it a bit easier today. Delicious breakfast at Tuc, then took a water taxi to Granville Island. We cruised around Granville Island on a beautiful day! The public market was amazing as well as the variety in food and shopping!

 Breakfast at Tuc was complete with a round of (arguably the best) caesars. Sam ordered oh-so-good chicken and waffles!

Our water taxi (via Aquabus) cruise over to Granville Island.
View of Granville Island from the Aquabus. Perfect day!
Pierogies, sauerkraut, caramelized onions and sausage for Mary's lunch.


 After quite a bit of action, we opted to buy supplies for dinner at the public market. Fresh shrimp, pasta, french bread, an amazing assortment of fruit accompanied by super-uber fresh salad fixings.

Dinner at the apartment tonight.
Great relaxing evening in with card playing, G&T's and ice cream+fresh fruit!

Tomorrow... to the MOUNTAINS!
