Winter Wonderland continued in Vancouver, BC, Canada
A pretty winter scene from Burnaby Mountain Park near Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
About this photo: We had our first snow fall of the season in the beginning of December. It was just a one day thing and the snow was gone the next day, but boy it looked so pretty.
Where I live the snow was pretty sloppy, so I went to Burnaby Mountain Park near Vancouver which is only a 10 minute drive and up the hill where the snow was more fluffy. I didn't have any views of the mountains and downtown this time, but I was surrounded by pretty snow scenes like the one on the photo.
Here you can see the Kamui Mintara (Playground of the Gods) sculptures. The poles were created by Ainu sculptors Nuburi and son Shusei Toko, members of Japan's aboriginal people. Kamui Mintara is a symbol of the goodwill between Burnaby and its sister city, Kushiro, Japan.

Some information on Burnaby Mountain: Burnaby is a city which belongs to the Greater Vancouver area and is about 10-15 minutes from downtown Vancouver. Burnaby Mountain is one of the beautiful places to visit in Burnaby and is located near the Simon Fraser University. The views over the mountains, the Burrard Inlet, downtown Vancouver and Indian arm from up here make it such a great place. This is a fairly popular destination popular visitors and locals alike. The green hillside offers room to throw a frisbee or send a kite soaring. There is a network of trails which offer a variety of hiking, walking and jogging options. There is also a playground tucked away in the upper hillside.
The Centennial Pavilion area features the Rose Garden, with its vibrant colours in season and a great variety of roses. Nearby is the acclaimed Horizons restaurant and two majestic totem poles, a reminder of the community's proud native heritage. Towering over the distant city are the tall Kamui Mintara (Playground of the Gods) sculptures. The Kamui Mintara is more than a dozen carved poles created by Japanese sculptors Nuburi Toko and his son, Shusei. These impressive sculptures commemorate the goodwill between Burnaby and its sister city, Kushiro, Japan.
Burnaby Mountain is a great place to enjoy in any season as there are always the beautiful views over the city, the mountains, the Burrard Inlet and Indian Arm (a coastal fjord of about 18km/11.25mi long).
