Dear friends

I have just returned from a lovely weekend trip to Vancouver Island. It was mainly Victoria, my second time and very nice. I will show you the pix soon but, as I got some comments on it ;-), I am also working here and quite a bit. So I will start with some university pics if you like...


me in front of Convocation Hall


some people working on a Sunday night


during my lecture of Educational Psychology



at times we have to work in this weather...

Well, I didn't take any pictures during exams, so this should do for now. Next pics will be more fun again. :-)

Another try

Vancouver Granville Island


lol


thinking



market place on Granville Island



I didn't know those... LOL



lovely Japanese food on Water Street


in a brewery in Yaletown, they had good (Canadian) beer, lol


Stanley Park again, I just love it there (in each weather)






Totem Poles


big seagull, lol


one last from Stanley Park



Police Cetennial Museum Vancouver






creepy but interesting



coffee break in Lonsdale Market (and from china, yeah!, thanks to the Italian licensee)

going out ;-)


Thank you Annegret, it was a great time with you around :-) Alles Liebe!

Back in Vancouver

I am doing two today as I am so behind and have some time left. After we returned from our Circle Route we moved into residence. We bought a camping bed, which Annegret said is quite comfortable. I hope so. And we spent some more time in Vancouver itself.

partly in very good weather

on Granville Bridge


view to Burrard Bridge


another view


well gotta stop now as the blog does not want to load any more pix, sorry

Circle Trip II

Studying keeps me away from taking care of my blog, but not only. It's really fun around and there are so many people making me have a good time. :-)

Wanna see some more pix? Here we go:

German bakery in Lilloet, haven't found one any nearer yet...


our circle tour of BC


Fraser River


LOL



Hell's gate (see the tiny house down there?)



cable car there


well ... :-D



a long, long train





our second motel: Swiss Chalet in Hope


a view of European flags, though I'm not sure they had the swiss one, lol


near Hope we took a lovely walk, partly through dark train tunnels, which are out of use now (fortunately)




a very romantic walk, too at least in the right company; we saw some couples appearing to be on their first date :-)



Hope itself, not very spectacular


last day, a trip to Manning Park




cold up there




witch's hair?


and a bit of Indian summer on our way back
