H R MacMillan Space Centre

Thanks! I'm glad you all enjoyed the pics as much as i enjoyed taking them :)
Rajesh, The Art work (metallic structure) is a Huge Crab designed by George A. Norris, who has more than a dozen pieces of public art displayed in the Vancouver area. The sculpture was welded together by Gus Lidberg at a nearby West 2nd Avenue location.
Interestingly, In the First Nations legend, the crab is the guardian of the harbour and it was also the zodiac sign at the time of the Canadian Centennial which was 1967.
It's a fountain sculpture and is made of many separate parts in the shape of a crab and completely appropriate for Vancouver as we are a Coast City.
I am very Creative, Artistic, Poetic, and have vast knowledge in Natural Medicine. I am a very Devoted Wife, and am Married to the most Wonderful Man! I love meeting people from all walks of life, explore the richness that different cultures and backgrounds have to offer. There is much good in the world...all we need to do is share our thoughts and experiences...give hope to those needing a little encouragement and just an ear to someone feeling the need to vent by letting their feelings out. In the pursuit of any dream there will be moments when it seems that the dream is lost. It is then that you must have faith in the person that you are. Believe that you have the ability to overcome any obstacle standing in your way, and when your dream comes true, you will realize then what a stronger person you really are. Please don't hesitate to say Hi..One of my all time favorite quotes.. " Love yourself and you will know love.Be true to yourself and you know truth.Know yourself and you will know God" - Master Kuthumi.
