Whale Not Watching

Yesterday's plan for Louise and myself was to go down to the Inner Harbour and from there go out on a whale watching tour, but wind warnings were up and the whale watching tour companies cancelled all their tours for the day. So we found ourselves downtown with a few hours to kill, so we played tourist for a couple of hours instead.
We took the obligatory postcard shot of the Legislature...

...checked out some First Nations' Totem Poles at Centennial Square...


...had yummy pizzas at The Joint...

...and hung out with some of the locals.


We did see some whales....

...namely these two orcas in a flower garden at the Empress Hotel. I love how the little one is blowing!
We rebooked for August -- hopefully we'll have better weather luck then.
