One Foggy Afternoon Walk: Stanley Park

The weather on the west coast has been abnormal, to say the least. With December snow building a large snow pack mixed with a pineapple express, weather term not Seth Rogan, melting the snow and adding alot of rain has made for an interesting end/ beginning to 2008/2009. All the more strange were the temperature inversions that lasted for just over half a week that saw most of metro Vancouver inundated in fog and cool temperatures, but the mountains were reaching temperatures of 25 Celsius. So with the trapped cool air my wife and I decided to head out to Stanley Park and walk along the sea wall. Our trek took up 4.5km from the beginning of the sea wall in Coal Harbour to the Lions Gate Bridge. The sea wall was closed at the Lions Gate Bridge due to unstable slope faces above the sea wall along with some damage to the sea wall from the weather. These are my first shots of the New Year enjoy.
