No Coal Here

Take Back the Port Rally at the Fraser River quay.

Whimsy

New decals on the side of River Market.

Who's that tall fellow on the quay? Why, the world's largest tin soldier!

Pigeon Gang

Nowhere is safe these days.

Hanging Out

Wall o' Tea

Lucky me! My name came up today in the @GreatWallTea's daily proclamation of the name that wins the owner a free cup of their choice from one of their many delicious blends. Needless to say I ended up spending much more than I intended, but it is definitely worth it!

Crisp

Tug of War

More whimsical art inside River Market.

Wide angle

Same building as yesterday, but a wider view east down Columbia Street, to the River Market at right, opposite the railway tracks.

Gotta go!

Whimsical washroom sign at the River Market.

Frozen Foods

Donald's Market as seen from the second floor of the River Market.

Fake

River Market once again, this time with a curious Christmas tree. It's made using what look like plastic straws, but with 4-way joints connecting. It looks like a sort of child's building set, actually.

Trippy

Inside the renovated River Market at the New Westminster Quay is this interesting set of panels that once on the escalator really does make one feel in a forest.

Oh, buoy!

This large buoy has been covered for a long time as renovations of the River Market dragged on and on. Now it is visible once again, immediately next to the Tin Soldier.

River Market

Refurbishment of this marketplace has been going on for a few years now. Actually, this reminds me that I should check in on it to see if it's complete!
