every day when I get to Burrard Station there are a million people taking pictures of these trees. it's nice because usually everyone is in a rush and we're all just trying to get into the station without getting soaked... when I go in off Melville everyone is taking pics, I feel bad running down the stairs and ruining everyones shots... "yeah, sorry I'm late for work, but you know, cherry blossoms at Burrard Station... what can you do?"

That's funny: I was "late" for work that day too. (I don't have set hours, and go to the office whenever I want, since they don't care as long as I get everything done during the day.) If I'm taking SkyTrain, I usually get off at Waterfront, but I knew from a photo I saw a few days ago--forget where--that the cherry blossoms were blooming. I had decided the night before that I'd get off at Burrard first, and take some photos before hopping back on the train to work. There was a Chinese lady taking photos there, and I smiled at her, and we had a short conversation about how the sun wasn't in the most ideal position at 10 AM to get the best light.
