About our Bacon Score methodology
YouTube Video Description↓

After our recent Alaska Cruise, we dedicated a day to exploring Vancouver and had an exceptional experience. We utilized the Aqua Bus to reach Granville Island, where we enjoyed lunch at the Granville Island Public Market. Granville Island features a diverse food selection and a vibrant arts scene with numerous unique shops and galleries. Subsequently, we rented bicycles and rode through Stanley Park, a sprawling park at the edge of Vancouver with a straightforward 10 km bike path. The park offers remarkable views of the city, Totem Poles, beaches, pools, and various artworks. Additionally, Stanley Park houses the largest aquarium in Canada. All footage in this video was captured by Jeff and Becky, with no stock or third-party materials used, except for images of maps, a picture of Spokes, and one picture from Granville Island. We have traveled to over 45 countries and visited more than 70 cruise ship ports. As both chemical engineers, we began vlogging in June 2023 to share our travel experiences.
