British Columbia

Canada's western-most province styles itself as "Beautiful British Columbia", and for good reason. Majestic mountains, dramatic fjords, dense rainforests, lovely lakes, and coastal variety
Here are photos from ten days visiting southern BC. Explorations include Vancouver, its harbour, Stanley Park, False Creek, English Bay, the Sea to Sky Highway along Howe Sound, the Burrard Inlet and the Indian Arm fjord, and Victoria and Vancouver Island.

Map
I flew in and out of Vancouver and rented a car for travel with a friend who lives in Vancouver. After some sightseeing in Vancouver we took a driving trip up the Sea to Sky Highyway and a day cruise through Burrard Inlet and up the Indian Arm fjord. We took a ferry to Victoria on Vancouver Island, drove up the inside coast, and returned by ferry from Nanaimo.
