Camo

Photobucket

Another disguise for the power / telephone boxes that are usually a dull grey. This one is located in Moody Park, near the swimming pool.

Sentries

Photobucket

On guard at many street corners are a pair of these: post box and relay box. The relay box is where the trucks leave the next mailbag of post for the posties to pick up mid-route. The post boxes have one of two paint jobs: the maple leaf design seen here, or one covered in the first half of various post codes from across the country. I haven't yet found one of those in New West.

Moody View

Photobucket

Looking west from the roof of Royal City Centre, down 6th Avenue and across 8th Street. That's Moody Park off to the upper right, and the clock that I've previously posted. If you squint, you can see the Fraser River way, way off in the distance.

Airy

Photobucket

Back to Royal City Centre today. A few more decorations have been put up - some strings of lights and enormous decorations suspended on bunting. Tasteful. I can't remember if this mall gets a Santa Claus and castle; I'll have to check back each week. Stay tuned!

Uptown

Photobucket

These flags appeared relatively recently, perhaps over the last couple weeks. Knowing me, however, they've probably been around longer and only last week did I look up far enough to notice them.

Round Around

Photobucket

Taken in Royal City Centre which, pleasantly, wasn't yet in full on Christmas mode. All the decoration seen was in the form of the beautiful pointsettias lining the stairways. These stairs end up at the underground parking.
