The day started with some rain, but it didn't stop me from sightseeing. I started at Canada Place, which is known as a convention center in Vancouver and is located right by the water.
After that, I went to the Gastown neighborhood. In the oldest part of Vancouver, there's a steam-powered clock called the "Steam Clock" that whistles the chimes of London's Big Ben every quarter hour. Unfortunately, the nearby Chinatown was occupied by many homeless people, so I didn't stay there for long.Back by the water, I walked through Creekside Park, past the BC Place Stadium (home of the BC Lions football team), through Coopers' Park, and into one of Vancouver's harbors.At the end of the day, I visited the upscale neighborhood of Yaletown, with many boutiques and restaurants.
