Catching Up

On David's anti-penultimate day in Vancouver (Tuesday) had me propose the Nibobe Memorial Garden and Museum of Anthropology—they are both lovely cultural resources and close to each other and our dear friend Paula came with us. She drove; I was itching to walk but my guests did not want to use our feet.

The first four photos are all in the Nitobe Memorial Garden. 




Contemporary basket weaving.

 An open storage area of the museum. Most of its collection is viewable in cabinets and glass-covered drawers.

Above and below: The Great Hall of the Museum of Anthropology.


 David ponders shields from the South Pacific islands.

 Aboriginal masks from cultures foreign to BC.

The three Musketeers: David, Paula and moi.
