If/when I come visit in the summer, I’ll probably check out Chinatown and English Bay Beach. (I wasn’t aware of Vancouver’s demographics before I visited, so it was a bit of a surprise. I think it’s half white and almost half Asian—apparently because of the expiring British control over Hong Kong.)

Glad you enjoyed yourself. We were there last September and had a wonderful time especially in terms of food.
