This afternoon I had a meeting with an employer who’s location is very near the ScienceWorld Skytrain Station. This very Skytrain station happens to be right across the water from The Village for the Vancouver 2010 Winter Games. There’s a walkway that leads from ScienceWorld and takes you all the way along the water to Yaletown. I took a right before GM Place (it won’t be called that much longer. It’s official name during The Games will be Canada Hockey Place) and walked up to Chinatown. But, back on the walkway, there are tents set up and and it looks as though ScienceWorld is being rented out for a Russian display area of sorts. The whole area along the walkway is filling up with huge tents for displays for Ontario and Saskatchewan. And right along the water are all sorts of Inukshuks. I’ll go back with better footwear – my clogs were not really good for climbing around the rocky patches with a camera.
