Well...ourselves and everyone and their dog was there. Well, actually, they don't allow dogs on the promenade. We saw a lot of disappointed dog owners who were told to leave. I must say I don't quite see the point of restricting dogs as long as they're on a leash.
We were lucky to get a parking place ($3 an hour...bad as downtown Vancouver) and I don't think we'll return. Loads of restaurants but all except the Boathouse which has a third floor outdoor deck are inundated with the car fumes and don't really have a view because the railway line is elevated and in front of the water so blocks it.
The Boathouse was perfect and they even have suntan lotion and sunglasses if you need them. We shared a great calamari with the usual sauce as well as a sweet chili sauce...yum! Elaine, you would have loved it!
Then for ice cream. I was tempted by the chocolate chip cookie dough and cotton candy flavours but decided on licorice and orange. Jim had black cherry..also very good.
