Anemone and Sea Star
Vancouver, BC is a very large city with narrow streets and tall buildings.
The aquarium is located in Stanley Park. It is too bad we did not have enough time to really investigate this beautiful park and other things in the city.
The Aquarium is a large one with as many as 70,000 different animals.
It takes awhile to see it all.
Condos
In the essence of time we drove to Vancouver, BC from Bellingham.
It was a pretty drive and we were glad we did.
What have been ideal, would have been to arrange for a tour, the next day so we could have seen more of the city.
The condominiums always look so pretty being all glass. So different from the ones we have.
I was wishing I could see the insides of some of them. Live there? I don’t think so.

Feiro Marine Life Center
Port Angeles has an aquarium that is a teaching center.
They had a lot of things I have never seen before in other aquariums.
Sea Cucumber, and this Painted Anemone.
It looks like a sea plant to me.
The Painted Anemone lives in shallow water. It eats crabs, sea urchens, mussels, fish and sea stars.
That information floored me.
