Hurray, an actual travel post!
Taking a leaf out of James' book I will try and dot point the last few days before my internet time runs out.
Day/Night 1
Got in at 7.00pm-ish. Totally and utterly confused particularly as it stayed bright as day for the next three hours.
Day 2
Walked down Robson St to look at clothes I couldn't afford and then decided I was to stuffed to walk around, I jumped the sky train for my own tour of Vancouver for a couple of hours.
Went to bed. The jet lag hit around 3.00pm.
Day 3
Gastown, Skid Row (between Gastown and Chinatown) Chinatown,guy smoking joint in broad daylight,Stanley Park, baseball game.
The baseball game was awesome. It was the AAA minor league Vancouver team, imaginatively named the Vancouver Canadians. They ended up coming back from 7-1 down to win 10-7
So a good day three was had by all, particularly the Canadians.

oooh....around that Gastown/Chinatown area there's a bummy part of town where you'll find a small community of crack dealers and you can always come by a joint.
Yeah, that was the Skid Row part. My god it was dodgy! I latched onto a family and walked with them until we hit Chinatown.
Heya, good to know you are safe and seeing interesting places - skidrow, gastown and chinatown sound like places from cartoons. Be careful for falling anvels and dark-ally ninjas.
