Want to see some international quality tennis? Well this week starting Friday and ending on Sunday, head on down to the UBC Thunderbirds Arena to see Canada’s best take on the French hot shots.

The Davis Cup!

Canada and France were drawn to compete against each other in the first round of the Davis Cup. With France’s heavy hitter Gael Monfils out of the first few rounds due to injuries, our chances are looking a little better.

Vancouver is a very health conscious city. It is common to see the fascination among many West Coast Sightseeing guests over how many locals are running, cycling, and being active. Some of our own active guests who took a Vancouver Urban Adventure Bike Tour got up close to an interesting event taking place at the Olympic Cauldron at the Vancouver Convention Centre.

Vancouver Tai Chi A few hundred people gathered in the square to practice Taoist Tai Chi.

ThisĀ  event was to promote awareness on healthy living and the unique

practice that many Vancouverites utilize to it’s maximum potential.
