Looking down from a plane at the B.C. Lower Mainland last Tuesday … that blanket of humidity was quite shallow. As our aircraft was descending for arrival Vancouver airport, the tires hit the runway not long after we pierced through the fog.

Pender. Keefer. Columbia. Main.
Those street names in Vancouver’s Chinatown were oddly familiar to me on my first visit in 2006, even though I’d never been there before.
In a sense, though, I’d already been, thanks to a couple of novels by Canadian author Wayson Choy.
His portrayal of Chinese immigrants’ lives in early part of the last century gave a taste of what the neighbourhood would have been like.
Things are not that way anymore, of course.
But the landmarks and the names are still there.
