Town quest

We woke up early today, so we got up and headed out. Think we made it to granville island market for 9am. Had a muffin and wandered about. Caught the ferry and walked up hornby st through nice residential district until reaching Robson st, which is like the central shopping district. Found somewhere to eat called inlets, and starting to feel a bit jaded by now, food was kind of what was needed, but equally, the blood rushing to your stomach always makes you tired, so had a bit of a post lunch lull. Walked to Canada place. She was really having a moment by then, so we bought tickets for one of those sight seeing bus things where you can get on and off at will. Went to Stanley park, and to the aquarium. I start having a moment, and she is chipper. We help each other! Aquarium is quite good in that they have a clear message about conservation but still not right those wild creatures swimming round a pool for my benefit. Feel torn between contributing to their incarceration, and supporting the wild life trust thing. Catch bus again and enjoy rest of ride home. Have a brew and head to bridges pub for tea. Its a guide book recomendations and its ok. Feel well jaded. Beer perks me up, so I have two. Walk back via west 4th st, which is more our cup of tea. Going to bed now.
