Vancouver
We spent almost two full days in Vancouver. Through the cruise ship we bought what turned out to be a two day pass on a sight-seeing bus, so we got off and on and looked at things that interested us at our leisure.
The first place we went to was the Classical Chinese Garden. The garden itself was fascinating, unfortunately, the tour guide we ended up with with far less so. So we wandered around a bit on our own, enjoying the peace in the middle of the city.
Our hotel was near the waterfront, so we spent a fair amount of time walking along there.
But the city itself was pretty fascinating.
