Sightseeing
Literally "the Peak of Vancouver". You can take the Skyride up to the top or hike up the "Grouse Grind" (a vigorous hike, literally up the side of a mountain). Lots of activities at the top, food is a little expensive but nachos and beer on a mountaintop is always tastier. Great place for photos and a view of the city.

A large, iconic gallery in Vancouver's former (historic) city hall in the heart of downtown. Always has some great traveling exhibits. Eventually this museum will be moving to another location so it's good to see here, now. The cafe in the gallery has nice food, a little expensive but tasty and fresh.
