Had sandwiches and cocoa for breakfast. Sandwiches are expensive, $3.50. Tsk tsk.. But the ham and cheese was delicious!! Went to downtown as we wanted to go to Fisherman's Wharf. So we dropped off somewhere near the Legistrative Building and Empress Hotel. But first we went to Thunderbird Park, which was so small and had many totems. Pretty boring. Then we walked past British Columbia Museum and into it's shop. The drawers are so cute in the 7th photo.
Besides the museum, there was a imax theatre. Probably will catch a show in there when we get our student card. Students have discount! Took a picture with a dragster. Then took more day photos of the Legistrative Building(14th photo) and The Empress Hotel(16th photo).
Went down to Inner Habour as we need to follow the edge to get to Fisherman's Wharf. Saw float houses and then we arrived at Fisherman's Wharf after walking for a long distance.

A float house costs around 100+ k, and you probably need to maintain it. There are schools of tiny of fishes. Stop at Barb's Fish and Chips to have haddock fish and calamari. Haddock fish is really tasty for fish and chips. In Singapore, we used dory, the taste is not so good for fish and chips, maybe they should change the fish! After pigging out, we decided to go to Beacon Hill Park, must exercise and get rid of the calories we gained. Passed by someplaces which had the flags of all Canada' s States. Then we arrived at the park. Need we went by the wrong entrance, so the park looks quite dead. Look as if we arrive in a desert. Lol.. Took candid photos, me meditating, trying to absorb the essence of the day and moon. Arrive at the sumit (photo illusion), hahaha..

Finally arrived at the correct part of the park. There were so many flowers. I think I took the pictures of all available flowers.
Climbed a tree. Actually it is not that high. Very nice to take photo. Came out of the entrance and we wanted to go back to zzzz.. It was around 6+. Then passed by more inns. The signboard is really good for slackers like me. Night is for sleeping, and day is for resting. I guess I will do that when the weather turns cold. Not sure if that flower is a rose that opens so big. The name was like hybrid tea and some other fancy name. Rebecca was like saying those petals can be used to pao cha.. Lol.. Who knows, nobody is going to try it. Couldn't capture the beauty of the fountain. It looks as if it was sprouting frosted glass water. The place was Victoria Conference Centre. After that, we went back to hostel to zzzzz..
