Granville Island

After UBC, we went to Granville Island, and okay everyone, it's actually a peninsula.  Canadians, y'know?  Granville was the original name of Vancouver until 1886, but after being demoted as city name, it remained a street name, which chilled out by False Creek (hmmm...false creek.  Maybe that's why they call a peninsula an island...LIARS) and a permanent sandbar which is now "Granville Island."  The peninsula...I'm sorry...Island...is home to a bunch of markets and restaurants and artist galleries, and we stopped in this soap store where we saw two adorable toy Yorkies, whose owner groused about how Brittany Spears has created a generation of young women who leave their small dogs behind in dressing rooms.  What? IDK.  Either way we saw some cute dogs, but also this beautiful lady by a propeller.
