Google Camera Car in Vancouver

Check out the snooping shots I was able to grab in 15 minutes.

Pigeon Park where all the cool people hang out. An interesting snoop trick is to take a right or left at a corner where there is no action adn see what's happening later in the day or a couple of days later. With Pigeon Park you get the gang hanging out on on e angle and then the gang getting food handouts on the other.
