Not sure what you’ve already done in Vancouver, but here are a few things you should try:

1. Stanley Park. You can never get enough of this park. Lots to see including a good aquarium

2. Capilano suspension bridge.

3. Take a ferry out to Vancouver island. At the very least, tour Victoria. Lots of great nature sites on the island.

hey evo - looking forward to seeing you at the bloggers meetup!

btw, why i thought that you were a soccer player is beyond me. hockey - goalie - soccer - something like that? what can i say, i had a real rough day yesterday.

but “bloccer” is still a good word, isn’t it?

for ice cream, btw (your wife seems to like it), i would suggest belaggio on main, around 14th or 15th. close to the JEM gallery, where we’ll have the meetup.

Not all that sure about the Vancouver area. There is the science center, which was at one time, the centerpiece of Expo 86. http://www.scienceworld.bc.ca/general_information/about_science_world/history.htm

Now, if you were in Calgary again, I’d have a bunch of interesting day trips. Vulcan for the Star Trek experience. Drumheller for the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology Banff, and many other things to do…

You should check out Richmond Night Market happening every Friday, Saturday and Sunday night from 7pm to Midnight (11pm Sunday). It’s a free, multicultural outdoor fair for the family so bring comfy shoes, empty stomachs and lots of cash! The variety and quality of food is mind-blowing but eating it ain’t fancy — you’ll probably have to eat standing and with your hands =0)

Jake (from the Just Not Right podcast) recently did a series of podcast episodes FROM Vancouver. http://notrightpodcast.blogspot.com/

It’s like the #56 - 60. If you get a chance you should check out Christa Giles’ hooping class: http://christahoops.com/

It’s a this really cool (from the podcast with Jake) center where a lot of different people take classes on juggling, unicycling, etc.

Also, there’s Paul Crick from the My World podcast - http://myworld.q2u.net/ who might be able to offer some suggestions.
