I went over to the Vancouver Art Gallery and they had a Leonardo Da Vinci exhibit and it was pretty cool to see how talented Da Vinci was in drawing, and in biology, and in physics and engineering. He was centuries ahead of the next in terms of sciences. I actually think he was probably socially unaccepted cause he dissected a lot of human corpses and did some pretty crazy things to advance science. His work was never published, although it was in his intent, until the 1900's, where a lot of the things he discovered were already becoming common knowledge.
There was a second exhibit that was the insides of body parts being mutilated and spilling out. It was pretty weird and nasty. I couldn't get pictures cause the first 3 floors prohibited pictures to be taken. What sucked was that the museum closed at 5pm, and I didn't know so I didn't get a chance to visit the other floors, although I do plan on it!
I passed by the Olympic/Paralympic cauldron again and this time the flames were lit! I'm sure it looks more beautiful at night, but I did get a few pictures! I also saw some of the Japanese Sledge Hockey Team on their day off relaxing and enjoying the city.
Here are some pics.
