The Honda Celebration of Light fireworks in Vancouver finished up for another year last night in English Bay. Thanks to those who shared their photos with the Miss604 Flickr Pool and #Photos604 on Instagram, I have another wonderful collection of images to share that give you just a sample of what summer fireworks nights are […]

The Honda Celebration of Light fireworks continued in Vancouver last night as hundreds of thousands people packed English Bay and the surrounding shores to watch France’s display. Beaches are getting full and boats are jockeying for position. No reported issues & great crowds. #Air1 photo pic.twitter.com/g2E3ZUYJnI — Vancouver Police (@VancouverPD) July 31, 2014 Thanks to […]

The USA kicked off the first night of the Honda Celebration of Light fireworks in Vancouver on Saturday as 250,000 people packed English Bay and the surrounding shores to watch. Thanks to those who shared their photos with the Miss604 Flickr Pool and #Photos604 on Instagram, I have a wonderful collection of images to share […]

Imagine picking up some of Harbite‘s new Jalapeño flavour chips, crunching into a handful of perfectly kettle-cooked morsels, licking your fingers, reaching again for the bag of BC’s only locally produced potato chip and seeing your awesome photograph front and centre on the packaging! Harbite Potato Chips is asking its customers to contribute a ‘hot […]

Saturday at Pemberton Festival was the busiest to date on the festival grounds, with crowds well exceeding those that flocked to the stages on previous days. The back-to-back lineup of entertainment on all six stages, including Laugh Camp with some of North America’s most popular comedians, had concert-goers on their feet almost constantly as they […]

Stanley Park is our favourite place to go for a walk, explore trail networks, and unwind. John and I have been fortunate enough to not only experience Stanley Park from the ground level, but to also get a glimpse at the forest, lake, gardens, and attractions from the air when we fly in on a […]

There’s the feeling of adventure you get while taking a floatplane flight. Skipping along the water before taking off and flying just high enough to top the Lions Gate Bridge or the tallest timber in Stanley Park. Waching the pilot’s careful movements, taking photos of a propeller spins so quickly it’s nearly impossible for the […]

Recently the popular social site Mashable posted a gallery of The 34 Most Beautiful Google Street View Sightings and while some contain sweeping, picturesque views, I wondered why none from BC made the cut. Surely some cherry blossom covered lanes or the Sea to Sky Highway would outrank some cement street planters from Poland (#12 […]

We recently heard from some Midwest travellers who visited Vancouver this spring and it was fascinating to hear them remark not on the mountains and the ocean, of which locals are so proud, but our architecture. In particular, the brilliant glass along False Creek and Coal Harbour that has been forming like crystals since the […]
