oooh, shiny!

If there's one part of downtown that I particularly like, it's Gastown. With maple leaves strewn prettily on the cobblestone streets, swan-neck lamps and the old brick buildings, it's as if these few blocks decided amongst themselves to stay exactly as they were 50 years ago.

While running a few errands near this area the other day, I chanced upon a vintage car show. I am certainly not a car enthusiast like the boyfriend (who was slightly appalled when I compared the carefully kept beauties to m&m's --- shiny, colorful, happy) but I did remember to whip out my camera for a few photos.







I'll have to admit that I did have a grand time snapping away, but please don't tell him I said that.

In other news, is it just me or has the air become nippy? I cannot believe it is fall again and that I am going back home in a month. No more coats and scarves and shivering in bus stops, hooray!
