Day 58 – See the largest animal that has ever lived on the planet (not Charlie Sheen)! Check out the Beaty Biodiversity Museum up at UBC…Canada’s largest blue whale skeleton (at a whopping 25 meters) is on display at the newly opened Beaty Biodiversity Museum. This thing is BIG! About the size of 2 city busses joined together. The museum is also home to a theatre and 20,000 square feet of exh ...

Day 57 – BC Sushi… Pulling Through in a Time of Vancouver All-you-can-eat Sushi CrisisWhat?? Shabusen on Granville has closed its doors?? I know this means very little to most people, but this was a staple of my diet. I showed up for a work/client/good friend lunch on Friday and BAM! Doors locked, and the place was half vacated… rumour is the landlord cranked the rent and drove them out of th ...

Day 54 - The Man, The Legend - The Clapton

Tonight, a legend comes to town.  A man whose name is no stranger to conversations about the greatest electric guitarist of all-time or most influential guitarist of all-time.  Even at 65, guy can wield an axe!

The last time I saw Eric Clapton, the shit-eating grin stamped across my face didn’t fade for a week.  In an age where Milli Vanilli-es ...

Day 55 - This Weekend's Breakfast - Prime Rib Hash @ MilestonesWhen offered the choice between independently owned feeding den versus restaurant chain, I’ll take the mom n’ pop shop every time.  A rare exception, however, is brunch at Milestones.  Their prime rib hash is hummanuh hummanuh good.  The kind of breakfast you need to lay down in bed after eating to close your eyes & puff on a ciga ...

Day 53 - Drive the Sea to SkyOne of the sweet pleasures of driving out to Whistler is rolling along that Sea To Sky highway.  When it’s a clear day, the views are phenomenal.  Today, for example, would be perfect – slaloming through the 2-laner with gorgeous ocean views on the left & towering snowy peaks ahead.  I love any road trip & confess that we’ve often driven out to Squamish just ...

Day 52 - Take That Winter!  Winterruption at Granville Island, VancouverThe non-summer months really cut into my Granville Island time.  The Aquabus just isn’t the same with the raincoats wrapped around the sides & chilling sea breezes shivering the spine.  

This weekend, Granville Island does its part to lure back the crowds.  Winterupption is a celebration of all things Granville Isla ...

Day 51 - Who's Afraid of Virginia WoolfWhen Edward Albee’s play, Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf, was adapted into film in 1966, it literally broke the mold.  This glimpse into a declining marriage, fueled by booze & a heck of a lot of yelling, lead to the eventual overhaul of the Hollywood Production code in favor of the classification system similar to the one used today.  Even after 45 y ...
