Vancouver

Nice stay at Vancouvert for IEEE Ultrasonics congress. For Rskating, the city is quite flat, with smooth big concrete plates or smooth pedestrian ways. The police is cool, and many skateboarders ride along the road!! On sunday 1st, we planned to skate around Stanley park, here is the map:

Thes views are quite stunning and the cycling path is smooth. Be carefull, the northern part is anti-clock wise only (not wide enough for 2 ways). Here are some views:

Start harbor

from Burrard bridge, we continued to Vanier park (not good for rskating: sand stones path)


And a nice Japaneese meal to finish this cool first day


On thursday we had a cool RSkating session at Hastings skatepark with Rollergirl and her friends!!! The bowls are deep enough to cover all levels, smooth with a good steel coping.
