Some of you probably have heard about the nasty "weather bomb" that hit Vancouver and the region last week. Among the particularly hard hit areas was Stanley Park--the 1000 acre jewel of downtown Vancouver.
Thousands of trees blown down by wind. Seawall ripped up by 5m waves. It will take months to clear the debris and probably years to repair the damage (and many many years for the trees to grow back.
See for yourself some of the damage
I'm gutted.
