Though seeing professional sports live is a bit pricey for my tastes, it's something very special to a lot of people. The Vancouver Canucks are a very good team the past few seasons and often provide a lively game to watch.

Theme: Boating/Sailing
Cooper Boating lets locals and visitors charter sailboats and powerboats from their central Granville Island Marina. The very friendly staff went out of their way to help a friend of mine visiting from California. Too many people who set foot in Vancouver never get out into the amazing ocean that is so much a part of what the city is all about!

Theme: Hiking
The Grouse Grind has become a very popular hiking trail for Vancouverites and visitors alike. You can read an interesting story about it here. The trail goes take you up an elevation of 800 metres, over a total distance of 2,900 metres. It's not for everyone. Be sure you're in relatively good shape, have water and a cel phone with you, and don't start too late in the day. And by all means, be dressed for a hike, not to go dancing! When you get to the top you can either climb back down or pay $5.00 to take the gondola back down.

Marisola Thu Jul 16, 2009 19:51 UTC I really enjoyed the political quiz you recommended. My scores were -5.0 and -0.92, similar to Mandela and the Dalai Lama! What does that mean?!? | zwildwolf Tue Jun 16, 2009 05:57 UTC Hey Rob, I'm going to be in Vancouver during the 2010 Winter Olympics and Balfor told write you and maybe get some good info. | VeronicaG Thu Oct 2, 2008 23:56 UTC Hey, Robert...it was nice to meet you and your Mom at the Ft.Worth vt meet. Sometime before the end of the year we hope to see some of Vancouver--as I was researching it, your page came up...I guess we'll be coming from Seattle. Can't wait! | was_the_beav Sun Jun 22, 2008 10:31 UTC Thanks for soooo much info about your hometown. This is a lovely page. :-) |
