This afternoon a Grey whale wandered into the downtown waters of Vancouver. False Creek is a small body of water which is fed by the Pacific Ocean (English Bay & Georgia Strait). Apparently this 40-foot mammal thought he/she would do some shopping in Yaletown or serve to intimidate the Chicago Blackhawks who are in town for game 3 of the NHL Playoffs. The Vancouver Canucks' mascot is an Orca after all.
CTV has a great video of the whale swimming from Science World under the Cambie Street Bridge back out to sea.
He came back again today, apparently! How very cool!
