Those are some really nice pictures. Did you get a chance to check out the twisty roads just outside of Vancouver?

The city workers are on strike so there has been no garbage collection for the last couple of months. Glad we did a good job hiding it all.

Glad you enjoyed your visit.

Dammit tomah! All those pictures are photoshopped!!! Fake fake fake It's all Igloos and dogsleds here and when it's not snowing it's raining all the time that's when we get to park the sleds and drive the Mini's! Glad you enjoyed your trip, sometimes we forget why we moved here, truely is a beautiful city. 2010 Winter Olympics should be a real showcase for our city, we just have to put up with all the construction and roadworks till then though. You should have checked out the Vancouver Mini Club! Great cars and great people

lol me and my gf were very fortunate the weather cooperated the entire time we were there. one crazy thing about the city though, you start heading to chinatown on the wrong street, and BAM! youre in the ghetto haha. none the less, you stay in the pretty part and its AWESOME.

2010 olympics will be coool for sure

wish i coulda seen a lot more mini's out there! i seen like 1 fixed up one, BRG black top, taking off on the granville bridge

Very nice pics, tomah.

We've been in Vancouver for the past 4 days and have decided to try to take pics of MINIs in the city after seeing the tomah's pics... I've got a few so far, but have counted at least 20!

I'll post pics when I get back home later this week.
