This could also be titled, how to keep Megan entertained on vacation. 

On our totally awesome (have I said that enough?) vacation in Vancouver, B and I were upgraded to a one bedroom suit with an amazing view.  The area of Vancouver we stayed in is filed with high-rise buildings, our hotel being one of them.  Our room was on the 31st floor, out of 35 floors total.  We were up there.  And I loved it! 

For some reason, high-rise buildings entertain me.  I don’t really love heights, but when I am up high, I love it. I love having the ability to overlook everything, which is why I spent most of our time in the hotel room sitting in front of the window.  I even moved a chair over so I could just sit there and look out.  (We had a balcony too, but at 31 stories high it’s a little cold and windy.  Plus, the chair wouldn’t fit outside.)

Today’s Vancouver Fact:  We stayed in the West End district of Vancouver, which is the most populated area in all of Canada.  You could walk from one end of the small island to the other in about 20 minutes, but yet 40,000+ people live in the area.  High-rise living is a must!

So besides staring out the window every chance I got, I also felt the need to take pictures of our view every chance I got.  I think I took a picture every morning and evening, probably every time we got back to the room as well.  Now you get to relive my obsession.  Lucky you!

We didn’t know what kind of view we had the first few days.  During my conference the weather was rainy and foggy every day.

Luck for us though, the weather cleared up just in time for our vacation to start!  Talking about timing.

Everyday was a little bit more clear than the day before.  We didn’t want to leave!  It was hard when everyday was a little nicer than the day before.

Sunset was awesome as well!  We couldn’t really see the sun setting from our room, but we could see the beautiful pink and orange hues cast on the buildings.

Night time was awesome as well.  I love my quiet house in Oklahoma, but there is something about a busy city that is so exciting.  Every siren or loud car had me running to the window to see what was going on.  In another lifetime, this could be me.  I think I could really get use to big city living!
