Today, Mika, the pugs and I decided to take a drive around Stanley Park, and see for ourselves the damage incurred during the recent high winds and heavy rains.
Although the east side of the park had many trees blown down in the wind, by far the most damage was on the west side, and in particular the Prospect Point area.
As a native Vancouverite - who for many years has walked, cycled, jogged and driven through the park on a regular basis - it was amazing to see just how many trees had been blown down!
Driving past Prospect Point, you can now easily see English Bay and West Vancouver from the road, and there is definitely a different 'feel' to the west side of the park. I think it will be even more noticable once the days get a little bit longer, and we see an increased amount of afternoon sunlight on the roadway, at Prospect Point etc.
This week, I'm going to visit our beloved Stanley Park, and take a few photos to share with my friends.
