The Conference was held at the Vancouver Convention Center, in a spectacular site at Canada Place, Downtown Vancouver.







I was lucky enough to have time for sightseeing and I took and bus, a cablecar and a chairlift to the top of Grouse Mountain for the fantastic view looking down on Vancouver.






On the way back I stopped off at the famous Capilano Bridge.








After the Conference, I walked around Stanley Park and later took a ferry to Granville Island.
