We went to a friend's house for dinner yesterday evening. Just like every trip to downtown Vancouver, we took the SkyTrain. It's convenient to pop out of the tunnel at either the Granville or Burrad Station. Because of the nice weather yesterday, it seemed that everybody had a similar idea of going downtown. Robson Street was very busy.Here's a picture of my apartment tower. The building has direct access to the Columbia Street SkyTrain station, so the half hour trip is always a breeze.
When going to work, it takes me about the same amount of time to drive half the distance.
