My tour of Vancouver starts at False Creek, an inland body of water hugged by highrise structures. The first notable sight of the tour is Science World, a beautiful domed building that easily catches my eye.

As I progress around the inlet, boats of every size, shape, and class can be found. This watery section of Vancouver is rather peaceful and tranquil.
