Out and Aboot ‘eh

Went out xmas shopping today and bought nothing. I’m without ideas of any sort. I figured the best idea was to give up and go for a walk in Gastown.

I took some cool pictures of the architecture and some more graffiti shots. I stumbled across the Dr. Sun Yat-Sen garden, which I hadn’t visited before. It’s small and apart from the one freakoid I crossed paths with, very serene.

I don’t know why it surprised me but I’m on Pender, enjoying Chinatown and decide to walk a block north to West Hastings to see if there was anything that caught my eye. Next thing I know, I’m being approached by the skids left, right and center. I don’t speak Honduran but I’m pretty sure of what they were asking me.

I stood on the corner of Carrall and W.Hastings for all of 15 seconds before deciding that this wasn’t the area to be pulling out a camera and taking pictures.

If I were given ‘The Ring‘ for 24 hours, I’d go to the Downtown Eastside with a flamethrower. I really would and I’d sleep soundly after.
