Day 3 -Vancouver

Woke up surprisingly early this morning considering the last couple of days!! Pottered around for a bit & then decided to head to Stanley Park. We walked past lots of shops and a few stalls on the side of the road selling funny smelling green stuff in all shapes & sizes! What the??
Continued down to Stanley Park where we hired bikes and rode around the Seawall which was beautiful! I'm still pinching myself that we are actually here!
Next stop was the Vancouver Aquarium. I really wanted to see the Beluga Whales but unfortunately they were no longer there. We watched the seal show and the shark feeding and the kids loved seeing the frogs and touching the stingrays! The sloth was pretty cool too!

     
Then we walked back to the hotel and had a swim & a spa before catching up with Saverina and John for a yummy dinner. Kaleb fell asleep during dinner & Caitlin and Josh weren't far behind. Just what you want to do the day after 36 hours of travelling is a 10km walk and an 8km bike ride!! That was meant to be our rest day....Oops!! Finished the night off with some coffee and ice cream from Tim Hortons - my new favourite place! Cake batter flavoured ice cream (tastes just like Mum's custard cake batter!!) with cookie dough chunks- I'm in heaven!! Was exhausted so only managed to stay up long enough to see the half time derby score! Go Eagles!!
