Whistler Village Centre
What a cute little place. It is very busy, but somehow they manage to conserve the village feel. It's probably the strict codes around the building aesthetics.
Vancouver International Airport
As far as airports go, this one has a lot of positives. The sculptures and displays are gorgeous. It is hospitable and easy to navigate.
It could have a better food court and shopping scene, especially at night.
The parents room could do with art and a music option you can access digitally (e.g., choose from a selection of music options to play while you are breastfeeding). It would be nice to have the sanctuary vibe be more prominent. At present, it is a bit bland and sparsely decorated, and not very homey. It has a bit of an accidental furniture storage room vibe. On the other hand, the chairs are comfy and the mirrors and counters are useful, it's good that there are plugs for if you need to pump, heat a bottle, or charge devices.

Grizzly Bear Habitat
I learned so much about bears. The person speaking about them was encyclopaedically knowledgeable. My baby was also absolutely delighted by them. What incredible creatures!
There was a bonus today of having a spritz of water mist going around near the enclosure, too. A pleasant way to learn about a majestic creature I would not like to encounter on any other mountain wander.
Here are some photos to give you an idea of the closeness, but they cannot do the experience justice.

Rockdale Park
This is such a refreshing park to come to. For any kind of day: hot, cold, rainy, overcast, or muggy.
People come here, but not too many. It's got space for quiet contemplation in the shade of spreading green foliage, there are delightfully snaking paths, a small engineered creek and pond with a bridge (fascinating for kids), and a perfect playground (especially for younger children).
I particularly recommend the paved paths and swathes of lawn for learning to cycle.
This is a much more dog friendly park than the one on the other side of the PCYC with the synthetic fields and giant slides. This is particularly the case, given the no dogs signs at that other park in contrast to this park. That being said, there aren't too many dogs here and I did not see any dog poo waiting for collection either.
The park is so spacious that it effortlessly accommodates many contrasting purposes.
