Host: Bea Lacerda

Info: - Meet your host Bea in front of 49th Parallel Café & Lucky’s Doughnuts (Thurlow). After we've gathered, we'll proceed to take in the Art Deco architecture of the Marine Building, where I'll share you some stories of Vancouver's growth.

- Next, we'll head to the Coal Harbour for its waterfront views & floatplanes, a perfect place for me to tell you some maritime stories.

- Later we'll pass by Canada Place, a National Identity Symbol of Expo 86.

- Up next would be Waterfront Station, a historical transition point between old and new Vancouver.

- We'd then explore Gastown with its cobblestone streets & Steam Clock. I'll be sure to address the city's origins here.

- Our final stop will be in a local restaurant where we could even enjoy an optional group meal to further connect and reflect about our day together.
