University of British Columbia at Robson Square
by leafmcgowan
When I first went to the University of British Columbia, the only place I could attend college in Vancouver was their main campus over by Pacific Spirit Park / Wreck Beach / Spanish Banks just west of Jericho Beach. But during my Multimedia studies, UBC decided to open a branch at Robson Square. I remember it was desired as well as controversial. Visiting the School 6-7 years later, I saw major improvements and that the campus took over the underground area that resides below Robson Street. UBC of course offers stimulating arts and humanities courses, leading edge technology programs, live performances, international events, and public forums at this location while providing a unique and metropolitan environment for the student being beneath the Fashion and arts district of downtown Vancouver, British Columbia. The classrooms were high tech and spacious when I attended, I'm sure they've done nother other than improve. Recently Visited 3/22/08. Rating: 5 stars out of 5.

Bring Rain Gear, although Cortes is one of the most beautiful Islands off of the B.C. Coast it gets a lot of rain storms. When hicking you always tell someone, where and when you are going and when to expect to be back. The people on the island are very friendly and helpful. They are always willing to talk, and you can depend on them to have a game of hacky-sack outside Mansion's Hall during lunch every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
Century's Winds of Change Mural
by meteorologist1
This mural, called the "Century's Winds of Change", is located just behind Vancouver Chinatown's Millennium Gate on Pender Street in a parking lot. This 7m x 14m wall mural depicts the historical era of Chinese in Canada; spanning over 100 years, from 1885 to present. It celebrates the struggle, settlement and integration of Canadian Chinese in Canada. Worth a see!

Actually Victoria is on Vancouver Island, about a two and a half-hour ferry and bus ride to Vancouver city. I spent two days in Victoria, and actually wished I could have stayed longer. I took an eco-tour of the west coast of the island, and had a wonderful day hike.
