Yaletown

Yesterday we caught the new Canada Line downtown to Yaletown. It wasn't a really nice day, rainy and cold, but we made the best of it and decided to get out of the house.

No personal pics, unfortunately we left the camera at home. We checked out a huge steam engine at the Roundhouse, a building dating back to 1888. It was the first engine to cross Canada. We climbed in it and rang the bell, and then moved on cos it was cold! We walked around for a little while, but then we were getting hungry and wanted to find somewhere that was dry.

We then went to Urban Fare, a gourmet grocers, who were having a tasting weekend, so we got to sample lots of free yummy food: coconut breaded shrimp, cheese, chocolate, biscotti, wine, bread - it was great! Saved us some money on lunch too.
