The 7th Day

Good Morning!

One week of traveling and I have seen so much, learned so much and met so many new friends who want to know what I am doing so far from Texas!  I tell them that my mission is to share what I see and learn as I travel, with friends back home.  What has this new day shown me?

Queen Elizabeth Park in Vancouver was built on an extinct volcano and on land that was a basalt quarry. Today, people ( and Bears!) come from all over to enjoy the beauty of its gardens.  It took many years to plant and care for all the trees, shrubs, and flowers.





















The Japanese Gardens on the grounds of  The University of British Columbia also draw visitors who stroll about.  Who is that handsome Bear next to the stone pagoda?!

"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the places and moments that take our breath away."

Happy  Birthday to a special friend!!
