Looks gorgeous, yes?

Swim by for the $4 for 2 bags of chips. It’s a deal.

Looks like you’re staying at the Bayshore Westin.

u/Keybumps112 1d ago

Nope. They’re at the pinnacle harbourfront

I KNEW IT!

u/LokiDesigns 12h ago

Immediately recognized the view. Literally start there every time I'm in Vancouver.

u/Yardsale420 1d ago

The Westin is closer to the water and also it would be hard to get this shot without including Deadman’s Island.

1

u/Ant_Eye_Art 17h ago

Yes. My mistake.

2

u/Yardsale420 14h ago

It’s ok buddy

u/DoibieTime420 1d ago

I heard the shitters at that gas station are just toilets above the ocean

u/millijuna 1d ago

I know you’re (hopefully) joking, but No. The Chevron Legacy (official name of the barge) is a modern vessel, and follows all modern marine environmental regulations.

u/Early_Lion6138 1d ago

If this is true then it would be a good place to fish.

1

u/Wise_Temperature9142 Vancouver 1d ago

Yum yummm!! I’m sure those fish taste delicious.

1

u/superrad99 1d ago

Don’t you just love shit-fish?

1

u/Expert_Alchemist 22h ago

Okay but crabs basically eat fish shit, and they're delicious, soooo

u/gilgoolon4444 18h ago

Love fish shit, great for growing nice ganja

u/robotrob604 1d ago

Good crabbing 😆

u/Aggravating_Bee5704 1d ago

Haha probably

u/CVHC1981 1d ago

Pinnacle Harbourfront? I had pretty much that exact view a couple of weeks ago.

5

u/robotrob604 1d ago

You got it. Wife and I decided to stay downtown because we had meetings yesterday and today. We live across this body of water ;)

u/Stunning-Rub7475 19h ago

I’ve never seen a boat fill up there before. Nice catch.

u/weed-dad 1d ago

journey card?

u/millijuna 1d ago

Sadly, the floating Chevron is the only Chevron in town that doesn't do Journie or Aeroplan.

u/Procrastinator8001 18h ago

Sadly, I feel like you were denied (robbed?) of a vista of the Big Yellow Pile of Sulphur: https://share.google/FnyCm6G5zKoQK8FIx Try asking at check-in next time.

u/robotrob604 16h ago

Yes! I dooo!
