A Visit Across the Northern Border


After spending several weeks in Seattle over the past four months, I have constantly been tempted by the Canadian border just about an hour and a half north of the Emerald City. When the opportunity presented itself and I had a few days to myself, I hopped in my ketchup-colored rental car and headed north (WEENR prefers to stay in his home country, as he doesn’t have a passport.)

Destination? Vancouver, Bristish Columbia, home to the 2010 Winter Olympics. And what a treat it was!

Over my two days up north, I explored Stanley Park via foot and bike, walked along the Seawall, took the elevator up to the Lookout Tower, and walked through the Olympic Village. While enjoying a delicious breakfast at the Public Market on Granville Island, I happened to see something that caught my eye.

The closest thing Vancouver has to the Wienermobile!

Although our Canadian neighbors treated me franktasticly, I sincerely missed the senic-crauts that I experience in my fun bun. I look forward to returning to Vancouver via the Olympic Games beginning February 12. Maybe they will have a Wienermobile race on skates?!
