Visiting Granville Street at night in Vancouver, British Columbia

Although I was completely exhausted from being out all day and since neither Maria or Lindsey were physically capable to go out either, I decided to take the opportunity to do some night photography in the City of Vancouver.

We were staying at the Listel Hotel on Robson Street and I started walking around and finally found myself in a very brightly lit street and it took me a few seconds to realize that this was Granville Street, the same street I was in earlier that morning.

I walked all the way down Granville, back up and just wandered the city as much as I could.  I had a fun time just walking around and taking pictures.

Well this is a short entry because it was a short trip.

Enjoy and let me know what you think.

    What is Future Shop? Can I buy a Delorian with a flux capacitor installed?

    I don’t think they sell Delorians with the flux capacitor, you have to get that as an add on. Future Shop is like CompUSA, or that is what it seems like. I’ve never been in there.

    I was thinking that ‘Future Shop’ was like Sharper Image or something.

    I don’t think it is like Sharper Image, but then again, I’ve never been in “Future Shop.”

    Hassan, did the street artist on Robson Street chew ya out for
    taking the pic?? I have heard he “sometimes doesn’t like folks
    taking pics of his pics”.

    Cheers,

    Jack

    Jack, no he didn’t he was quite nice about it. I saw him a few times when I was visiting Vancouver last month and just kind of smiled a few times as I passed him by and I complimented his work. Then when I was taking a night walk and I saw him doing his drawings, I just kind of asked him if it was okay to take a pic and snapped a couple shots.

    Seemed pretty harmless.
