Yesterday, we braved the drizzly weather (my sister said we were "true Vancouverites to go out regardless of rain) and headed out to Lynn Canyon's suspension bridge in North Vancouver. There are two main suspension bridges in North Van, one costs about $14 each to cross and the other is free and goes over a swirling waterfall. We went to the cheap one and spent an hour or so on the trails.
Something that I truly appreciate about Vancouver is how much outdoorsy stuff can be done right inside or just directly outside the city. Last weekend, we went for a long bike ride in the park right outside downtown Vancouver. But once inside the park, you can go for hours and it seems like you're in the middle of nowhere. A similar experience greeted us yesterday when we headed by public transportation to Lynn Canyon. We took the seabus over to North Van and then boarded a bus to Lynn Canyon. We were there really quickly and it's amazing how much wilderness you can experience just outside a major city.
