Not a bad idea and some fine pix, but you have Vanier Park on the wrong side of False Creek, and the
West End's English Bay Beach is *not* the north shore of English Bay. That honor is reserved for,
well, the North Shore.

cheers.

What was written was: "We head west along the north shore of English Bay past the ferry dock to
Vanier Park. " Granted, the style is not the best but one could presumably understand "the ferry
dock to Vanier Park" as being "the dock of the ferry going to Vanier Park." As far as the "North
shore of English Bay" is concerned, I fully agree with you that West Vancouver is located on the
North side of English Bay but I also have to admit that the area of the West End (or is it the
Burrard?) peninsula West of the Burrard Street bridge is located on the North side of English Bay.
North Vancouver would be North of the Burrard Inlet.

I love Lighthouse Park! Great suggestion.

We have received so many suggestions that it is hard to choose. Chinatown is an obvious walk that we
are missing. We have plans to do that walk next, then we have the gardens at UBC, then we have the
Richmond dyke walk, then ...

It's a good point about the reference to Vanier Park! Thanks for the clarification, we'll clean the
sentence up.

You'll just have to get up earlier, and walk faster, Bill.
