more thoughts on vacation planning
thanks to everyone for your vacation suggestions! I have some plans now… lots to do :D
Tumblr media
I thought I'd share the suggestions here compiled for your reading pleasure - might be some ideas in here if you're looking for a bit of a break this summer (amid the heat, forest fires, and other climate disasters):
First, some ideas if you're local to the Vancouver area (or planning on a visit)
Vancouver
Day trip! If you want a quick ferry ride, try Bowen Island or Salt Spring Island, or if you want to stay on the mainland, try Sasamat Lake
Maple Ridge tree walk or zip line (or axe-throwing!)
White Rock beach and pier (bonus - taking a double-decker bus from Vancouver down)
Lonsdale Quay (featuring the ever-popular ride on the seabus)
Honey's Donuts in Deep Cove
Granville Island before 12pm on a weekday
Fireworks! But make friends with someone who lives in the West End who will put you up
Lynn Valley suspension bridge (and the local trails – very nice, very free) (and honestly, you can skip the Capilano Suspension Bridge theme park - it's super expensive and not really worth it)
Try the new Michelin star restaurants in Vancouver and then go to the other restaurants you know that are better and enjoy those too
Lastly, if you want some more organized nature, try the Van Dusen Botanical Garden
Now, onto general suggestions!
Self-care
Sleep for a day or three
Do all the hard stuff that a 9-5 gets in the way of - go to the bank, book that eye exam, etc.
go get that warning light in your car looked at, i mean it mhal
Do as much gentle housecleaning as interests you
Spa experience - massage, mani-pedi, other spa things
Bubble bath/hair mask/other home spa pieces
Do a thing
local zoo or aquarium
Art galleries, science centres, and museums
Botanical gardens
Events hosted your local library
Local events/fairs
Trip around to the vintage/antique/flea shops
Check out local second-hand record stores and/or bookstores
Do a thing (+ Effort)
Touch grass/sand/water/trees/flowers. Bring a book and read in nature
Hiking
local walking tours
Kite flying
Activities(tm) - such as paddle board, horseback riding class, go-carting and so on
Maker space - pottery or print making or woodwork
Eating
Every restaurant you haven't tried but want to
Local breweries/wineries
Hit up the local city page on reddit and see if there are any restaurant rec places - they can be hit or miss but sometimes there are some gems.
And this one from @krchov is so cool I'll paste it here in its entirely:
Dedicate time to making a map of the food carts/cheese shops/etc in a specific area of your city. Compare the quality of similar wares in each one. Collect data. In the end you will have a cool map/dataset, new favorite food place and on your wandering you will probably happen upon some before unknown interesting places.
happy vacationing!

Is it weird that I’m trying to plan out when is the absolute earliest I could possibly start training for a marathon? Yeah, I thought so. The earliest would be the end of August, by the way. lol. At this point in time, I don’t know if the surgery has done much so I’m probably jumping the gun a little. Maybe I could train for a half. lol.
I was looking at some old pictures of hiking up the Grouse Grind. I’d go up sometimes twice in row (yes, on the same day /humblebrag). If you haven’t heard of the Grouse Grind it’s a 2.5 km hike up the face of Grouse Mountain in North Vancouver. Elevation gain is 2,624 feet (800 metres). You’re only allowed to hike up. You either need to take the gondola or another trail (BCMC) back down.

I remember way back in the day, if you hiked up, you got a free ride down. Now it’s $20. lol. (It’s $75 for both up and down ticket which includes the mountaintop activities like the scenic chairlift). Anyway, it’s a big tourist destination both in the summer and winter (for skiing). It’s the closest mountain to downtown Vancouver. There’s some fun stuff to do at the top of the mountain (ie lumberjack show, birds show). My favourite is to say hello to Grinder & Coola (the 2 resident grizzly bears) or ride the chairlift and go up the Eye of the Wind (a massive wind turbine). At the top of Grouse, you can hike into the back country: Dam, Little Goat and Goat Mountain. Goat is challenging and you’ll need to use provided ropes and chains to summit but it’s a great view.
I’d also hike from Lynn Canyon to Grouse Mountain (along the Baden Powell Trail). Lynn Canyon also has a suspension bridge which is fun (and free) to walk across. Lots of trails and hikes around there - most are easy to moderate. You can also go swim at the 30 ft pool.
There’s a little nature centre which is great for the kids. I had one of the best cups of coffee at the cafe at Lynn Canyon. (Although, it’s been a few years so I’m not sure if it’s still just as good. lol.)
We have another “touristy” attraction called the Capilano Suspension Bridge (very close to Grouse Mountain) but it’s around $70 for entry into the park. Lots of scenic areas (but there’s no hiking).

Anyway, those are just a few areas of North Vancouver that I used to hang out at. I was trying to calculate if I could make a day trip out there and do the Grouse Grind. lol. The average person takes a little over 2 hours or so to hike it. Back in the day, I could do it in about an hour. I definitely need to be stronger and more healthier to be able to hike that, again. *sigh* Not sure if this is wishful thinking or something to work towards. I guess I’ll soon find out over the next few months.
I started back on the Ibrance, today. I was supposed to have started it last Tuesday but I wanted to make sure I was healed up a bit more. These cancer meds do a number on your immune system. I just realized it’s been 3 weeks since I’ve taken it, though. I don’t want to push it any longer. Next week I have a bone scan. I don’t have an MRI until August but I’m okay with that. It can take a while for the new hardware to settle in. I don’t want them to heat up while I’m in the machine. That happened a few years ago when I had the original hardware put in my neck. It was horrific - I could barely breathe. I had to abandon the test.
This morning I chatted with my participant with the health coaching program and helped with their action plan. This afternoon I have groceries delivered. I’m hoping once the kid gets home from school, they can take me for a walk to the cafe.
My hives are gone but it feels like parts of my face are flushed and super hot. That happens sometimes but it’s really annoying so I’m going to put a cold cloth on my face now.
Here’s some other old photos around Capilano & Grouse.
