Vancouver, B.C.
VANCOUVER, B.C.:: This weekend we visited Vancouver for a relaxing, fun and romantic getaway. My company was sending me to Sydney for a week, so we wanted to make the most of our time together before I left. Despite the rain, beautiful Vancouver did not disappoint.
We knew it was going to be a great weekend when we checked into the Hyatt Regency and received an upgrade to a luxurious penthouse suite on the 34th floor. We were overwhelmed by the amenities: two living areas, two flat panel TVs, a kitchen with a fully stocked bar, self-grind coffee beans, two washrooms, an enourmous tub, a ceiling mounted shower, bathrobes, slippers, floor to ceiling windows with views of Coal Harbor, marble floors, granite countertops, see-through fireplace, dimmable lighting, complimentary turndown service, and a desk with computer and Aeron chair. It was nice!
It was hard to leave the suite, but we managed to tear ourselves away to enjoy Yaletown's street party, shopping and dining on Robson street, a funny TheatreSports show on Granville Island, and a 3D safari at the IMAX in Canada Place. We love Vancouver and had a great time!
Then it was off to Sydney for me! No, not Australia... Nova Scotia.
