This is a little street side cafe on a rainy night in the Gastown area of downtown, Vancouver. Fortunately when we arrived yesterday the weather was fairly nice, so we ran around like mad! Today, as you can see, it rained – but it did light up the streets nice.

I like the luminosity
The light off wet streets makes it look beautiful
Welcome to Vancouver Ron.
Looking out the window it seems that you’re not really lucky with the weather today… but tomorrow might be good 🙂
If you’ve got some clear weather, head up the road to Cypress mountain. There is a viewpoint not so far up where you get a superb view of Vancouver (http://www.flickr.com/photos/kristaeleman/3227445156/). You might take some good sunrise/sunset shots from there and it’s basically on the way to whistler. (http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=49.35326,-123.179183&spn=0.004717,0.009592&t=h&z=17).

Thanks everybody!
Kris, I forgot you were from Vancouver. Ironically we had driven up to Cypress Mountain this morning on our way Whistler and I we spotted that great viewpoint on our way up. I didn’t stop, it was too cloudy and foggy, but made a mental note for future trips. That is a great image – perfect viewpoint.
Thanks,
Ron
Great idea with the sidewalk reflections Ron. I hadn’t ever thought of that before. It rains down here from Thursday til maybe Saturday so maybe you want to stay in Vancouver until this weekend.
I love the look of the town. And the rain illuminating the brickstone walks. Very pretty!
