Housekeeping

Starting at noon and finishing at 5:30 pm means people from Vancouver can arrive and leave in time for ferries, making it a day trip if they wish.
Also those arriving from up-island can drive down and return home in one day if they wish.

West Coast Harps will provide a filtered water supply as there is no kitchen.
There are two coffee shops within a half city block, one with a wonderful bakery.
Plus Chinatown with lots of takeaways and restaurants is very close.

There is a ramped entrance and off-street harp unloading area at the Pranic Healing Centre.
