The day of January 26 started with a visit at the US Consulate which was short because at the entry I were accommodated by a hostess who gave me a document while asking to consult the consulate website. Sunbeams boring the opaque mass of clouds I undertook a long walk into downtown by traversing the very commercial Robson St then I moved towards the West End where houses of the end of the 19th century were preserved destruction. At English Bay Beach I was welcomed by strange sculptures laughing with exuberance. Then I returned to the hotel by Coal Harbour and Gastown. For the first time since my arrival I was not attacked by drizzle.
