Exploring Downtown
We got ready in the morning, watched a YouTube video as per usual, had some breakfast and got showered.
After that, we headed out to downtown Vancouver to see what it’s all about.
We got downtown and really just walked. The mountains can even be seen from the city centre, which is really cool!
We looked at a few shops, went into some, but mostly just walked for a couple of hours, figuring out where things are, what shops there are etc.
Kim went into Lush to browse around and then we stopped for a coffee.
Blenz Coffee
We saw a Blenz Coffee, which is a chain we have been meaning to try for a while.
Firstly, when we went in, we saw the price which was much more expensive than other coffee shops.
Secondly, the staff were not very attentive and weren’t really listening during the order.
Kim got a hot chocolate and Curtis a cappucino and we sat and people-watched whilst we drank them.
Unfortunely, the cappucino didn’t really have any flavour and the hot chocolate was ‘just ok’.
Not sure we’ll be eager to visit any time soon.

Evening
We walked back to the apartment via the supermarket. For dinner, we had chicken strips with smiley face potatoes and a side of ceasar salad…a very odd dinner but a childhood favourite!
We got back, did some laundry and relaxed before we had dinner.
Broken Elevator
Before we got back to the room, though, we had to wait a while as all elevators weren’t working and we didn’t have an extra key to be able to walk up the stairs to our floor!
We had to call the host to come and bring us the key and let us in…all fun times!
We watched some YouTube videos whilst we ate and then for the rest of the evening, we started watching Black Mirror which is odd but interesting.
