| Capilano suspension bridge park. This pretty area in the mountains had an old suspension bridge really high above a river gorge. it was really wobbly to walk across but fun! |
 |
| The tv show "smallville" was filmed in the Vancouver area and we found a few of the areas where they filmed. ( we loved that show) Here is the "talon" it was a coffee shop/ movie theatre in the town of smallville. In real life it is a small movie theatre. |
