Gastown

So, when i'm walking around Vancouver I feel like i'm in New York City (not that I've been to NYC but basically I feel like i'm in the movie version of it). Yet, Vancouver is nothing in size compared to big, big cities like NYC. I've just never been in any place like it, I've never been surrounded by so many people, ever. And by so many people of so many different cultures.
Yesterday I ventured to Gastown. It's known for it's cobblestone roads and old-stlye brick buildings. It's packed with souvenir shops and I loved the old light fixtures. There's an old face clock that blows a steam whistle every half hour and everyone stops to "ooh and ahh" at it. Also, Gastown is named after a guy who was really gassy so that's cool haha.
