- Please note for those who attended the Stanley Park event picknic.
- I was very much going to be at the event pick nic this year, but found that I did sleep in to the pick nic...although I did leave in plenty of time to get to most places in Vancouver without a hitch although it took an abnormally long time by bus to get to the Second Beach Location
- and this was a problem for me since I walk most places I go and take the bus there is alot of energy required to get to the Location at Second Beach since it is very secluded from any public transit area, and is very difficult to access...and so it took an abnormally long period to time to get there and I ended up arriving when it was completely over and also could not find anyone there having the picknic when I arrived.
- Considering I have alot of energy and am quite able to walk most places and I myself could not arrive there on time for the event...this brings to mind how hard it is to get to this location...and so for next year...I would certainly like to say the the location be rethought to be an a more accessible location where most people can easilly access the site.
