It's cool to see where the trees abruptly stop growing; the SkyTram operator said that as the elevation changes the trees grow much slower, so some may be a few centuries old while still looking young/small.

We thought coming back to Old Fort Point first thing in the morning (~7:30 AM) to catch the sunrise would be a smart thing to do, except that it was -15 degrees C (about -1,000 degrees C with the windchill), so we stood next to a cliff out of the wind and came out only briefly for a few pictures like these.

That's as far as we could take the Subaru. and we couldn't walk up much farther as the snow got pretty deep quickly. The road was pretty bad, and got progressively worse the farther we got up. From this point, we had to back up about 100 feet to a spot where we could turn it around.

Seaplane coming in for a landing. They fly low, right over our condo. We saw them quite often as there's a pretty busy airport about 200 feet from where I took this picture.

People watching from our perch in the little Bento Sushi restaurant. This guy was reading his eReader while walking down the street. Avid!

These pretty purple prisms were embedded into the sidewalk around the Yarrow building, first laid in c1909. These actually allowed light to shine into the basement which extended below the sidewalk.

There was a large exposed concrete wall in the Airbnb, and we took advantage of it, and the warm sunset light, to take a new portrait of Sejin.

The night view of harbour is great, especially with the new bridge and being able to see everyone walking, running, and cycling across it. We were lucky to see it lifted twice while we were there.

On the chilly ferry ride back from Victoria to Vancouver. There were fewer passengers than the last time, so Sejin and I go to enjoy the views mostly in solitude.
