Vancouver Part II

I figured it was about time I wrapped up our Vancouver/Seattle vacation from SEPTEMBER...terribly overdue, I know. So....

On our second day in Vancouver we took the Skytrain downtown (Vancouver has a stellar public transit system). En route, we stopped for a stroll through Olympic Village (though it was deserted when we were there). We continued via Skytrain downtown for an afternoon of wandering. We walked all through downtown, explored the convention center(s), grabbed some lunch, more wandering, sought refuge from a downpour at Starbucks (accompanied by tea and gin rummy), then met up with a friend of F's (a VC native) for a whirlwind city tour and an amazing dinner at Naam - probably the most amazing vegetarian restaurant in the world.
