• DNCB Outing No. 2023-02B to Stanley Park, January 11, 2023

  Just before the designated time of 9 AM, six of us convened at the Second Beach perking lot. It took Noreen and I about 55 minutes from Tsawwassen, and I must admit I certainly would not relish doing this as a daily commute. The parking pay station was a challenge, as the LCD back-lighting was

  Not the partially sunny day the forecast had promised, but there was no rain so who can complain? There were just 5 of us on this outing (Brian and Louise, Lidia, Marion and Glen) and we met at the appointed place, pretty much at the appointed time, notwithstanding the traffic diversions in the park and

  Eleven DNCBers met by the Second Beach swimming pool in Stanley Park – Richard, Kirsten, Debbi, Jacquie, Lee, Roger, Mike, Lorna, Pat, Manli, Terry. The new traffic pattern in Stanley Park made finding our parking lot a bit confusing.  Although the seawall is partially closed for repairs, we were able to follow it part way.

  Twenty-four DNCBers enjoyed a mild, sunny, and productive, Tuesday morning at Stanley Park in downtown Vancouver.  We got lots of up-close-and-personal looks at some neat species; check out the amazing photo, and video, evidence on our DNCB Flickr site. Some car-pooled from Petra’s at 7:30 am, others drove directly to the Second Beach parking lot.
