Steveston Historic Fishing Village is an ever so romantic fishing village, that is situated in Richmond BC, on the Mighty Fraser River
Canada
Definitely one of British Columbia's best kept secrets.
Anyone who knows me, knows of my huge love for tugs,
and this grand ole lady, the KU'ULAKAI - 1944 Miki Tug is by far, my all time favourite.
The low on the horizon setting sun, casts a beautiful tangerine glow that further romances Steveston Harbour.
(Ku'ulakai meaning: Hawaiian Fishing God of Fisherman)
Her history: as per online sources: (Unverified)

Ku'ulakai is said to be the only intact Miki tug in Canadian waters.

核三廠南區展示館裡面有3D電影院,
播放的也不是枯燥的省電宣傳影片,
據說有許多環保議題的3D動畫,我只看了一部,
冷氣很冷,在炙熱的墾丁午後不失為一個避暑佳地。
展示館裡還有一座被號稱"全台最慢的手扶梯",
一搭上去,臉部便不由自主地浮上無奈的神情。
