The Best Western Sands by the Sea is just a door or two up Davie Street from this Starbucks. We ate at the Bayside Lounge directly above Starbucks.

We're on the Amtrak Cascades on our way out of Vancouver headed for Seattle. This was a three-car train: two coaches and a very nice new lounge/cafe car in the middle. And they had Black Butte Porter! Via Rail is the Canadian passenger rail service.

It was a beautiful day in the northwest, and it seemed like everyone was outside enjoying the sunshine.
