We've made a few faux pas - foreign country different customs and all that - we
didn’t realise that drinking in Canada is quite a different experience to
anywhere else! You have to wait to be
seated!!!! Even just for a beer! We went to a bar suggested by the B&B owners and just walked in…. to be swiftly grabbed by a member of staff and sent back to queue and be
seated by the hostess!!! Except there was a queue so we decided to try a
different bar which turned out to be closed – so we went to the Havana bar and
queued to be told the bar was full and there was a waiting list so we ended up back at the original
bar where the queue had now gone and so we got seated on the patio where finally we were able to choose from a massive range of craft beers and get a drink! and very nice it was!!!
It had been a long day in the city - first the museum and then a wander around Granville Island, taking in the market and various shops, aimed at passing tourist trade so quite expensive and a small gallery exhibition at the Emily Carr Art school. Quite a large area of the island is taken up with a cement works and even they have entered into the spirit of street art and had decorated the tall cement making? towers..
