We are just jumping back and forth. We spent the day in Vancouver, BC doing some auto touring about the city. We had lunch near Queen Elizabeth Park where Denise tried her first Vietnamese Pho Soup! Not bad. I still like there sub sandwiches more. From lunch as we were traveling towards Stanley Park I saw this giant Purple building with the words CHOCOLATE SHOP on the sign! Got to stop. Paul quickly made a right turn into a neighborhood and we circled around until we found it again.
Just like Charlie!
It was the Purdy Chocolate company and all they had was a gift shop where you could purchase any of their products. I was hoping for a tour but we did get to taste some really good dark chocolate and of course we had to buy some!
Ok, now we really need that walk! We made it to Stanley Park where you can walk along the seawall and through the park for miles. We probably only walked about 3 miles but it felt good to be out just walking. We watched lots of sea planes taking off and landing in the bay. Stanley Park is like parks in other big cities, a tiny oasis amongst the cement.

Taking a break in the forest
Totem Poles, I love the bottom of this one!
Lots of walking, a picnic dinner with dessert and we are on our way back to the USA for the rest of the holiday weekend.
