Mode of Transportation from the city to the peninsula - Aquabus Ferry. Very affordable, short and fun journey |

Because every trip needs several cups of coffee!! |
The market was my next stop. Tempting chocolate, exotic fruits, fresh meat, fish and poultry, pottery, jewellery and most importantly, food. I walked around several times and I was captivated. If I lived in Vancouver, I would be there every month. The cinnamon records from Stuart's Bakery looked amazing and whilst I didn't try them, I will have this lovely photo to remind me of stupidity.

Can you guess the name of this fruit? It's called Salak or snake fruit - from South East Asia. Does not smell great lol |
The rest of the day was spent visiting the local boutique shops where I was gifted an amazing pair of earrings which are currently my favourite summer accessory. Ten Thousand Villages is the name of the shop and all its products are handmade and fair trade. WIN WIN. The day ended with a visit to the Granville Brewery for some cold delicious craft beers. I am not a beer fan but gosh the light beers were incredible. I have to shout out to the incredible bartender who was pouring 6 drinks at the same time - I was mesmerised
