Historic Steveston Fishing Village

Earlier this year I was on a field trip to the waterfront at Steveston, one of the many cities that together constitute the Greater Vancouver Area. Steveston was once a thriving fishery centre but is now a pleasantly quiet respite from the rest of BC's Lower Mainland, which tends to be overcrowded and hyperactive. The calm I experienced in Steveston made up for the long transit ride to get there and back. How long was the bus-train ride? Over two hours from my suite near UBC and then the same back again!
