Panoramic Pictures - Canada

Our best holiday ever, was how I assessed our visit to Vancouver and the Rockies in August 2003.

Needless to say, there were a few panoramic shots to be taken.

 

The waterfront in Vancouver IS Vancouver. There is so much action and movement going on all the time with all manner of floating and flying craft against the magnificent backdrop of Grouse Mountain and the foothills of the Rockies.

This view of Vancouver was taken from Cambie Bridge and shows False Creek and Granville island in the distance.

Just a few kilometres south of downtown along Cambie, is Queen Elizabeth Park. Well worth a visit.

Just a half hour or so north of Vancouver on the sea to sky highway is Horseshoe Bay where ferries regularly depart for Nanaimo, Langdale and Bowen Island
