With downtown Vancouver on the other side Granville offers a nice place to sit and have some gelato and watch some silly ship activities.
A tradition celebrating the holiday season brings winter fun to residents and visitors with the opening of the Robson Square ice rink.
Nestled in the bustling heart of Vancouver, Robson Square ice rink is a seasonal gem that welcomes more than 100,000 visitors each year.
“Vancouver’s winters are special, and the Robson Square ice rink has been a cornerstone of that magic for years,” said Lisa Beare, Minister of Citizens’ Services. “The opening of the rink is a commitment to providing a space where families, friends and visitors to the region can come together, skate and revel in the beauty of this magical city.”
The Robson Square ice rink also hosts thousands of B.C. students every winter as part of the Robson Square School Skate Program. Students enjoy free skating at the rink and lessons are available. The popular program is open to students in grades 4 to 7 throughout the Lower Mainland.
“The opening of the Robson Square ice rink is more than just a holiday tradition, it’s a symbol of community spirit that brings people together to embrace the cold weather,” said Brenda Bailey, MLA for Vancouver-False Creek. “Families have fun and local business owners benefit from the increased foot traffic.”
The Robson Square ice rink will be open to the public from Dec. 1, 2023, until Feb. 29, 2024. There will be live music nightly from Dec. 13 until Dec. 24.

The m.Zuiko 60mm macro with twin macro flash STF-8 let me capture all kinds of detail of this false tarantula (calisoga longitarsus) that was wandering down my hallway at about 6 am. It also shows all the lint, fluff, etc that the critter picked up on its travels. Have you ever tried to brush fluff off an angry 2" wide spider with a small paintbrush? I don't really recommend it!
I think this is a false morel mushroom. There were a number of them in one area along the trail to Ragged Mountain.
