Morning Hike at Lynn Canyon

Saturday morning, I surprised my boyfriend by taking him to the Lynn Canyon Suspension Bridge in North Vancouver. Sadly, this place gets waaay less traffic than the more famous Capilano Suspension Bridge. The Lower Seymour Conservation Center, located conveniently next to the bridge, keeps the park well groomed which allows people like us to venture in there. They also serve as an education center for teaching children just how fragile and important the ecosystem is. Bonus!

Vancouver, we slowly transition

Winter mornings in Vancouver is picturesque. Sunday morning at 8am and the air is fresh, cold and clean. The light layer of tiny crystalized frost over the grass and atop the roofs of houses marks the start of the winter season. The world has yet to be awakened. The streets are still and quiet, free of noise. The people fast asleep, dreaming. There is a beauty in solitude.

The Chief - Climbing the Apron

My day started at 8:30 when I woke up. After having a small breakfast, I met up with my climbing partner and we drove to all the way to Squamish, B.C. I had no idea where we were going to climb that day so when he told me we would be climbing the Chief, I could not have been happier. Though not too difficult, it's one of the most famous crags to climb.

We started climbing the Banana Peel (grade 5.7) on the Apron at approximately 11am. The hikes in between the climbs were harder than the actual climbs. The views were spectacular though, it was exactly like the hike, but 10x more rewarding.

Sun-kissed

Yesterday was a great day. Woke up , met up with my friend, had lunch with her, and spent the day soaking up the sun at the beach. We went back to my place afterwards, hit the pool, and then headed for all-you-can-eat sushi.
