At Jericho and Kitsilano Beaches

A few days ago, I took a bike ride around to Kitsilano Beach, Vancouver's own Malibu, and Jericho Beach that's a mile closer to UBC west along the coast of English Bay.

I just liked this picture at Jericho: people enjoying the beach, a bunch of kayakers out in the water, and giant cargo ships waiting their turn at the docks around the other side of downtown. Talk about sharing! We make it work.

This one is from Kitsilano Beach, I noticed two of these trees there on my way back. In the background, you can see there's also a pool, a stage, and just a lot of people. But this tree is wonderful; nearly all the other blossoms are going fast, but this tree is just ... exuberant.
