Capilano Caught on Camera

Monday saw us do the long trek to Capilano Suspension Bridge, about a 20 minute walk from where we were staying. It  is a 7 acre sliver of private property as vertical as it is horizontal. Up until today it has had 4 owners. It was originally built as a tourist destination. The bridge is 137m long and sits 70m above the river canyon floor and reassuringly wobbly since 1889. Elvis was "seen" here in 1987! Thank you very much.

Up amongst the trees..the edge of reality.

A great place to be


The spiders here are huge!

The end of the day.....a plate of perogi at the Black Frog
