Breakfast and Adventure in Stanley Park
It's an early start, woke up around 6:30 for an early for breakfast before we set out to start the day. We had a breakfast buffet with plentiful fruit, cereals, freshly smoked salmon, apple-chicken sausage and meats, also a minimum range of baked goods and a chef to cook fresh omelettes, waffles and pancakes! A not-too-shabby start.
The first stop of our venturous day was at Stanley Park! It's a very large park with a beautiful view of the lake and you can see Lion Gate Bridge.. as well as walk through many forest hike trails, long walk/bike paths around the whole park. It would take an entire day to go through the entire park so we only made pit-stops at a few locations. And due to the unfamiliarity of the roads, we got lost and just drove around the park a lot. We passed by a kid's water park, beach, and pool park.. and totem park. It's not a bad thing to drive through the park vs walking the park, since parking fees are a bit ridiculous. I understand that the park is tourist location however, wouldn't it be better to have a single payment to enter the park instead of constant charges per hour throughout the park? Just a thought.

Just a small snap shot of the first stop at the park. We had a short walk on the path around the lake before moving onto another area of the park.
That's all for now~
