Leaving the port city you of course see port activity.

The rows of houses on the hill behind the water is amazing! What is the yellow stuff they are putting on the barge? That is a barge isn't it? Having not ever seen a barge until moving here I'm not an expert. But they have a much busier port and water way then we do.
I'm longing to cruis now Chet...that's so cool!

I'm not sure what that yellow stuff is but it was such a vivid color, I just had to take a shot of it. This is a very busy port. Vancouver was a port town in 1986 when they had a Worlds Fair. After that the place has grown tremendously and now its a port city.

I am researching the yellow stuff. I really am curious. So far I've found yellow sugar that it could be. Rogers Sugars imports it from that port. This page has been really informative. Let me know if you find anything out.

Ok, I think it's probably more likely sulfur. It's bright bright yellow. That's exported there.
