Granville Street, Vancouver, BC

Sister Sarah and I walked down Granville Street this evening.

We were surprised to discover that it was closed off to traffic and everyone was walking on the street.

I stopped a policewoman and what was going on.

Apparently because of the high concentration of bars on the street, on Friday and Saturday nights from 10pm to 4am in the late spring and summer, they close a portion of the street down and there are lot of cops on patrol.

The Vancouver Canucks lost to San Jose tonight ... the bars on Granville Street were packed and lots of people spilled out onto the streets after the game.
