Once Upon A Time: A Walk Through Storybrooke

So I finally made it to Vancouver, after a day’s delay (seriously, I hate the Dallas airport). After just missing being on a flight with Jared Padalecki from Supernatural, I finally got into the city where almost every television show ever made is filmed. My first stop? Storybrooke from Once Upon A Time.

Some of the buildings have their Storybrooke signs, but others are still easy to identify if you watch the series.
