That looks like an awesome place to walk or ride a bike. I've been to Vancouver before, and I remember really liking that city. It's definitely my favorite city in Canada.
Also, being the Civil Engineer that I am, I have always enjoyed buildings and bridges and other massive man made objects, so obviously I enjoy city skylines. Vancouver has a very very dense skyline, so it's really unique in that sense. I know that a lot of you guys are from around the area, so this might interest you.
