We visited the Burnaby Village Museum today, as they were having a free admission day so we checked it out. We were lucky to find a parking spot in the shade, a quick walk from the entrance of the museum. It was boiling hot. By the time we got to the entrance gate (a 2 minute walk), everyone was sweating.
This museum is quite special. It's basically a tiny village of shops, from the early 1900s. There were maybe 20 little shops, some of them with people dressed up and greeting you inside. There was a bank, a theatre, music piano shop, bakery, Chinese medicine shop, blacksmith, barbar... quite interesting. Too bad it was so hot outside, we were all burning so we had to leave after an hour.
