Vancouver

   Vancouver was the last stop on our trip. The population of Vancouver is 2 313 328 and the population density is 802.5 people per km squared. It is found at 49.2500° N, 123.1000° W. 
  Vancouver was our final destination on our trip across Canada.
  Vancouver, British Columbia is in the Pacific ecozone, and the Western Cordelia land form region.   The average temperature in the summer is 23°C to 15°C, and in the winter it is 1°C to 6°C.

   Sometime called "Hollywood North", Vancouver has become the third largest filming location in North America.  Every year, Vancouver's economy earns a whopping $1,000,000,000 from the film industry!  Movies such as Night At The Museum, Twilight New Moon, Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Man of Steal, and X-Men the Last Stand were filmed in Vancouver.


   One of the places we went during our trip to Vancouver, was Gulf Islands National Park. We went kayaking.  The view was amazing!  We were surrounded by the beautiful mountains and forest.  We were also able to go whale watching while in Vancouver. 


   We also went to the British Columbia Sports Hall of Fame.  Here, we saw many interesting memorabilia from the 2010 Olympics. We went to the Stadium that the Olympics were held in.
