6 Degrees

6 Degrees is a great restaurant in Coal Harbour.  It's very close to Lift Bar and Grill and across the street from the Westin Bayshore.  Yesterday we had a great Red Hat lunch there.  We've had an entire month of wonderful sunshine but today we received some much needed rain.  Hopefully it rained where all our forest fires are burning, they really need it.  I didn't take pictures, so these I've taken off the internet.

I loved the unique ceiling.  Apparently it was previously an art gallery

We watched the cook at work.  He was cracking brown eggs when we left.
I told him I try to buy brown eggs, he said "these are free range, organic"!

From Global TV on Monday:

Ovation made history earlier in the day when she became the largest cruise ship to visit Victoria, British Columbia some 61 nautical miles away. Both cities mark her first ever visit to Canada. Victoria will be a regular stop on her summer itineraries to Alaska from Seattle while Vancouver will be the gateway used for her Hawaii repositioning cruises at the beginning and end of the Alaska cruise season.

We would have walked the seawall back to Waterfront Station, however, it was raining quite heavy.  The Ovation of the Seas was scheduled to leave at low tide.  We didn't see it leave and didn't want to walk in the rain to see it first hand.  We'll catch it when it's back in September at Canada Place.
