Pay Per View

 This is the view from the back of the 250 Vancouver Bus that travels from Horseshoe Bay into Downtown Vancouver. Kind of spectacular.

As I've learned in recent days, The Lion's Gate Bridge is best avoided for reasons of traffic, but still an enjoyable city trek to West Vancouver, by bus at any rate. This 250 route was a particularly useful discovery as it leads to ferry departures -- we're not landlocked!

What I've learned in Vancouver so far is that you DO have to look back from time to time. The views are free.
