Sunshine galore

A second day to explore before heading back to shifts from tomorrow, so I decided to take a walk to Stanley Park.

It was glorious sunshine, though bitterly cold.  Snow melting slowly into ice patches, though the sun not really warm enough to melt it completely.

I ambled along the sea-wall starting ftom Sunset Beach Park,  where there was an art piece, being used by a small group in photos. 

Further along there were more art pieces and an aids memorial wall.
On the edge of English beach was the Inukshuk, a stone symbol of the Inuit culture, with a big I AM alongside.



Continuing along, I spotted a brightly decorated building so headed off the path to take a look and came across a sculpture of 14 cast bronze figures, all in differing laughing poses.


Continuing along the seawall, I ended my walk at second beach, where the children's pool was completely iced over. Just as well it was closed.


I then had to start heading back as I was meeting a friend of my sister's for lunch. Melissa had met my sister through an online game, so when she knew I was here, suggested a meet up. 

Had a lovely lunch and chat, putting the world to rights. The food was lovely and I just had to go for the sticky toffee pudding to finish off.

All in all a very chilled day, which was just as well as I feel a cold starting. 
Let's hope tomorrow's shift isn't too taxing.
