Caught the #44 Bus at 9am to take Stair #4 down to Wreck Beach off UBC Campus. Saw 1 loose seal pop his head up just off shore two times.
Retreated 400 stairs up Stair#5 to see at least 8 totem poles and 100's of roses in the Rose Garden.
Pushed our way through the 50,000 undergrads to meet 2 of Natasha's physics friends for sushi. Only $7.50 gave me 1 tofu teriyaki, 3 pieces of tempura, 6 avocado rolls and 1 salad (plus I nabbed 2 tempura rolls off Natasha's plate!)
Traveling with 0 companions I scrambled down 470 stairs to see about that many butt cheeks on the "clothing-optional" part of Wreck Beach. After 2 hours I met Natasha for a single long-island iced tea at Koerner's Grad Pub.
Due to 2 swollen tonsils there was 1 Final Fantasy concert canceled, leaving 2 extremely disappointed people (probably many more actually). After 9 Chick'n Nuggets and 1/2 a Sleeman Honey Brown we walked 500 miles, through Yaletown to the water where we witnessed the the 1 time/month bike demonstration Critical Mass roll by that must have had 250+ participants.
A long walk around Chinatown, carefully avoiding East Hastings, turned out to be one giant waste of time as the Night Market season has come to a close. To partially fill the void we split 1 delicious strawberry-raspberry bubble tea, as I shot rapid fire up to 9-at-a-time pearls out of the oversized straw.
